| Plot Summary of The Gender Wars |
|---|
"When women take over the world, male values such as logic and reasoning become obsolete in favor of "a woman's way of knowing", a system based on a woman's feelings. Then when it becomes possible to create an androgynous unisex woman who can reproduce by herself, men are in danger of becoming extinct. There is only one person who can save men, and she is a cloned female genetically designed to be a perfect woman, but to do that she would have to go against the established female government and as a perfect woman does she even want to save imperfect men?
