Indeed, they are entirely dependant on the remaining sperm samples now that the men are all gone. But doesn't that add the element of being on the brink of total extinction and thus add a new layer on realization that maybe, maybe, they are focusing on the wrong things entirely...
I don't mind, it doesn't hinder my reading enjoyment. I just don't find it likely and think that the MC sometimes act like she didn't grow up in a world like that.
I wasn't referring to an entire female species that is implausible. I meant it more as that they have dual roles. Whiptails literally segregate themselves into 'male' and 'female' roles, with distinctive physical differences even though they are all female. It is very primitive, of course, I don't mean to say that humans aren't capable of more, but it is certainly plausible.
Though it's really funny to see that they've maintained the "going to the bathrooms in groups" thing as a poke towards the gender in chapter 8.
Lucide, just to be lucid, I never intended to suggest a women-only, parthenogenetic-reproduction society was implausible. What's odd is the re-creation of dual gender roles when there's only one gender. I mean, why bother? Finally a society without sexism, and they go and recreate it from scratch! But it's interesting--the stark artificiality of the gender roles, and of any taboos about love between people from the same role, reflects somewhat satirically on our real-world taboos about same-sex love. To me, that's a good SF element. It's rare for manga to actually make any use at all of the social-commentary strengths of SF, so that's cool.

This is pretty much a whiptail lizard story. It happens. No more heavy lifting to suspend that belief.
@Cassanova
He'd die. Like them brown antechinus.
I mean, we ditched that stuff for a reason. And not only because nobles (like Erika-"sama") are just entitled jerks who like to flaunt their power a little too much.
Seriously who would create such a stupid system.
But whatever I will just have to rise my "willing suspension of disbelief" level.
