hello there! sincere question, why do you think there are so many omegas in miscecanis (I think I misspelled that but close enough) I myself prefer Alpha but I like nests anyway but I never really did traditional things for my first sex why start now with my "second sex" thingy whatever it's called

also I will likely be a reoccurring anon so call me Cumin, I will sign all my asks

Hi!!

I think that there’s a lot of omegas in the miscecanis community because the traits assigned to omegas are really relateable for a lot of us. Here’s some reasons I can think of:

People who enjoy and write a/b/o, for the most part, have been socialized as women. Omegaverse explores topics of power as it relates to gender and bodies. This trope creates a space for a reader to play with those ideas within the safety of fiction! So, it makes sense that those who feel so strongly about these ideas that they’d identify with them (miscecanis) would tend to feel that way about the omega experience. That perspective is so central to the trope that is literally in the name “omegaverse”. (For a great breakdown of this idea, see this video essay)

A HUGE portion of the miscecanis community is trans and nonbinary, especially afab. Of course not every trans person feels the same way, but many of us find safety in or resonate with omega anatomy. Omega anatomy isn’t consistent between verses, but it always breaks the binary norms that society imposes on our bodies. It’s really appealing to self identify with a role that is in agreement with our bodies, rather than in conflict.

Here’s a post where I wrote about this topic before

For me, this last point has been true in various stages of my transition. When I was at my most dysphoric, my omega identity was my greatest refuge. I’m more comfortable now but it’s still very important to my gender.

Neurodivergence and typical omega behaviors is another big one. I mean come on, nesting?!? Heck yeah. I think that people might feel that because they enjoy the features typically attributed to omegas like nesting, sweet scents, nurturing roles in relationships, etc., that must make them an omega. It’s really okay if that’s why someone picks their role! But like you mentioned anon, you’re an alpha who likes to nest, that’s really great too. I think that behaviors are a starting point for many people and that could be another reason why there are more omegas in miscecanis.

(Also omegas are often doted on and yknow what?? who doesn’t want that)

The simplest answer though: most a/b/o is written with omega protagonists. The protagonist is the character you empathize with the most, your window into the world of the story. When most of the omegaverse you read comes from the perspective of omegas, that might end up feeling the most familiar!

Spicy Bean and Tomato Soup (Vegan)

I love when Soup Season begins, on these early Autumn rainy and chilly days when a steamy bowl of something hearty feels like hug! (To be fair, I also love when Salad Season begins on the first warm days of Spring; but that's another story!...) This Spicy Bean and Tomato Soup definitely warms you from within, and it is tasty as, too!

Ingredients (serves 3):

2 tablespoons olive oil

1/2 red Bell Pepper, rinsed

1/2 green Bell Pepper, rinsed

1/2 teaspoon ground chilli or Cayenne Pepper

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 red onion

1 large garlic clove, minced

a small bunch Garden Parsley

1 tin red kidney beans (about 1 cup)

1/2 cup Garden Cherry Tomatoes, rinsed

1 teaspoon coarse sea salt

1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

1 cup Whole Peeled Tomatoes 

2 cups water

1/2 tablespoon demerara sugar

In a large pot over medium-high heat, heat olive oil.

Seed and dice Bell Pepper halves, and stir into the pot. Cook, a couple of minutes.

Add ground chilli, cumin and cinnamon, and fry, a couple of minutes more.

Peel and finely chop red onion, and stir into the pot, along with garlic. Cook, another minute.

Finely chop Garden Parsley, and stir half into the pot.

Drain red kidney beans, rinse under cold water, and drain thoroughly again. Stir into the pot, coating in spices and herbs.

Halve Cherry Tomatoes, and add them to the pot. Cook, a couple of minutes.

Season with coarse sea salt and black pepper.

Roughly chop Whole Peeled Tomatoes, and stir into the pot, along with their juice. Cook, about 3 minutes more.

Stir in water and bring to the boil.

Once boiling, reduce heat to low, and simmer, one hour.

Just before serving, stir in demerara sugar until completely dissolved.

Serve Spicy Bean and Tomato Soup hot, sprinkled with reserved chopped Parsley.
