Gender Apart from Sex
This article does not seem to touch on any ideas of a single-gender world except in terms of a single-sex one. That is, worlds based upon unified physical characteristics rather than identity. I think this is the result of largely citing science fiction. While science fiction seems to be an ideal source for single-gender worlds, I would encourage people to look for possible alternative references as well. While I am not greatly familiar with feminist theory, it seems like it would be extremely relevant to this subject. Zombieraddish (talk) 19:51, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

 * Are you talking about societies in which physical sex exists but has no social role, and may be hidden? —Tamfang (talk) 22:19, 12 September 2012 (UTC)

Yukk
What, no mention of Keith Laumer's "War with the Yukks"?

Consider also Greg Egan's Schild's Ladder and "Oceanic"; in these, as in The Left Hand of Darkness, functional sex fluctuates (in different ways). —Tamfang (talk) 22:16, 12 September 2012 (UTC)

There is also F. M. Busby's The Breeds of Man, in which human cyclic hermaphrodites (Mark II) are created. The society portrayed may not qualify as a "single gender world" for the purposes of this article, as there are still "standard" humans; Busby uses the story to explore the social ramifications more than the genetic ones, and focuses on the relationship between the Mark IIs and the "standard" human society. --104.129.88.191 (talk) 12:02, 17 March 2017 (UTC)

Lesbian world in fiction

Lopsided gender world
What about worlds in which the male/female ratio is something other than (approximately) 1:1? That’s not technically a single-gender world, but still markedly different from our own. Should those be mentioned on this article or should they have their own? 97.116.51.145 (talk) 18:35, 8 April 2020 (UTC)

This is funny
"Some lesbian separatist authors have used female-only societies to additionally posit that all women would be lesbians if having no possibility of sexual interaction with men..." Strange way to say that women prefer men over other women--Davi Salomão (talk) 18:44, 3 August 2020 (UTC)
