What Does This Mean?
[ FANDOM ][ FANFICTION ][ TROPE ]
A fandom abbreviation for 'male pregnancy,' a trope in which a male character becomes pregnant. It is not exclusively a slash (m/m romance) trope by strict definition, though slash usage dominates; today it most commonly appears nested within Omegaverse/A-B-O fiction.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
"The fic tagged mpreg had the male lead carrying triplets by chapter ten."
LORE & ORIGIN
The earliest tagged fanworks on Fanlore date to 1983, in Star Trek fandom, but the trope did not become mainstream fandom-wide until the mid-to-late 1990s.
