Out of curiosity, what does an alpha-alpha relationship look like? Obviously I ask this partly in relation to Lex and Ethan, but also just in general in your hcs
The way I see it, Alpha-Alpha and Omega-Omega relationships would probably be a part of the LBGTQ+ community in this universe. So there's definitely bigotry against these kinds of relationships. Couples like John and Wilbur, Alive and Deb, and Ethan and Lex all face some form of discrimination, with Macnacross and Deb and Alice receiving a double dose of it due to being same sex and same second gender couples. It's partially why John and Wilbur were never open about being a couple (the other reason being that Wilbur was John's commanding officer).
I could also see Alpha-Alpha couples having a slightly easier time than Omega-Omega couples. That's not to say they don't experience discrimination, but Omega-Omega couples also deal with a form of sexism on top of it. A lot of ‘Oh they need Alphas to deal with heats.’ type bs. There's been a big fight for these couples to have the same rights in the eyes of the government. That was one of the big things Howard has done with his political career.
Ruts and heats would be handled probably the same way, just with more use of toys. Just like how there's an Alpha pheromone that can calm Omegas in heat, there's an Omega pheromone that does the same to Alphas in rut. I could Alpha-Alpha couples using an artificial version of said pheromone to make ruts a little easier.
I hope that answers your question!
