Considering the large number of male-dominated societies in existence, it is understandable that fiction is open to the idea of the women occasionally wielding ultimate power. Lady Land extends the idea to an extreme level. In a Lady Land, the population is predominantly female. Males may be considered inferior, used as sex slaves, or even expelled or murdered. This may create problems by leaving said society with no obvious method of reproducing outside of the sex slaves option. There's a very good chance that this issue will be brought up in-story, along with the issue of what happens to any male children born in a no-males zone. Some stories explore how a culture is affected by the absence of men by giving the characters other motivations. Other stories take it to the Logical Extreme as an Author Tract of how women are better off without men or how the all-woman civilization would crumble if men weren't there to help them. The first genre is known as "lesbian utopia" as it can appeal to a group of women without attraction to men. This is a common portrayal of Amazon societies dating back to the original Amazons of Classical Mythology. While some Amazons were presented as heroic, the Greeks also often tended to depict their society as a whole as Straw Feminists to "demonstrate" why women should Stay in the Kitchen and not be allowed any power at all. If there are no males at all, this becomes a One-Gender Race. Naturally, a proper Lady Land will be ruled by a Matriarchy. See Improbably Female Cast for when the cast is mostly or entirely female without an adequate explanation in the setting. Contrast No Woman's Land, the male chauvinist counterpart which is almost always depicted negatively. See also Persecution Flip, which is likely to happen if the Lady Land is overtly hostile to men. Compare The One Guy featuring a male character in this scenario. Not to be confused with the electric variety. |

In Victoria: A Novel of 4th Generation War, Azania is a science fiction example. Founded by feminists revolting against patriarchy in a post-apocalyptic world, by the time of the story it has become a high-tech Amazonian nation whose mostly lesbian inhabitants have replaced marriage and motherhood with eugenic cloning. Unfortunately, most of them are also genocidally hostile to all men. | |

Herland is the first work of fiction to take this premise at its serious roots: the male characters who have heard of the titular society make several assumptions about what it might be like, concluding that they'd soon be running the place with their superior rugged masculinity. They are naturally incorrect and are captured, but fortunately the women are deeply curious about male/female culture, having only heard about it through legend and keep the men around to discuss it. On comparison, the outside world compares poorly to the sexuality-less eugenicist utopia, and one of the male characters refuses to take his girlfriend out to see it since he doesn't want to disappoint her. | |

Another spoof in Eric, where the mildly sex-obsessed Eric has visions of lost kingdoms of Amazons who use men as slaves for the very specific tasks they need men for. A footnote explains that these tribes do exist, and their slaves are expected to sort out the funny noise in the attic. | |

Children of Mother Earth is a Dutch trilogy of young adult novels written by Thea Beckman set in a world After the End (world war 3 in this case), the only fertile country left is Greenland and it's run by Women because "men want power". It's pretty much an Author Tract on how women are better, but not a bad post-apocalyptic society to live in. | |

With the New 52 reboot, Themyscira has taken elements from the most extreme Greek tales of the Amazons and exaggerated them- making their society violently homicidal towards men, who are only used as breeding stock or chattel for trade. Wonder Woman (Rebirth) retconned this version of the island into a fake, and the real Amazons are not so violent. | |

The Chantry is something like this in the Dragon Age setting, being sort of a gender flipped version of the Catholic church. Andraste, their Crystal Dragon Jesus, was a woman, and so only women can rise through the church ranks to become revered mothers. The Divine (their version of a Pope) can also only be a woman. Men can join the Chantry as lay brothers, but the highest rank they can attain is chancellor. (It should be noted that all of this is only true of the southern Chantry - up north in Tevinter, the Divine is male and men can rise just as high as women in the ranks.) | |

Might and Magic Book One: Secret of the Inner Sanctum has a town, Portsmith, that is dominated by females. No explanation is given, but it probably has something to do with all males being drained of half their hitpoints on every intersection and the town being ruled by a Succubus Queen . The only male, Zam, is hidden away behind a Bookcase Passage. The local residents are quite happy to see visitors, however. | |

The country of Alessandretta in Orlando Furioso. It is supposedly descended from wives of the Greek heroes who spent twenty years away at The Trojan War, who on their return decided they had in fact better off without their wayward husbands.

The Joketsuzoku (the name translates to village of female warriors), who are localized as theChinese Amazons, in Ranma ½ are a downplayed version of this. Whilst their society is most famous for its powerful female martial artists, males are allowed to be taught martial arts and female martial artists often marry male martial artists that best them in combat. They also allow non martial artist male visitors into their village so long as their traditions are respected. One of the main characters of the series, Mousse, is a male martial artist from the Joketsuzoku's village and whilst he is treated badly by the village elder, Cologne and the village's champion, Shampoo, this is due to his clumsiness and unwanted advances to the latter. Additionally the father of Shampoo, is shown a few times and is on good terms with Cologne. | |

One chapter of Franken Fran has Fran visiting an island that Professor Madaraki once helped out. It's a society of women who reproduce via parthogenesis; a few miles away is an island of men who do the same thing. Fran discovers a majority of both sides want to reunite and arranges for them to do so... whereupon jealousy takes over (of the "You slept with my sister?!?" variety) and both sides exterminate each other to the last person. There's a bright spot, however - their hermaphrodite children survive. | |

Ilia in the Fire Emblem Elibe games, Binding Blade and Blazing Blade. Being the frigid, mountainous country it is, the country's economy rides on the back of its Pegasus Knights, which do time as mercenaries and send money back home - and since only females can ride pegasi, women (and especially the riders themselves) have elevated social status, with men being the homemmakers. Supports and other details reveal that while there is a horseback knight brigade of enlisted men it's a second-class unit that mostly does disaster relief and scut work the women don't feel like doing, and since the Pegasus Flight Leader is the de facto commander-in-chief, this bars them from meaningful government roles as well. This eventually changes in the end of Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade where the leader of the horse knights of Ilia, Zelot, is Happily Married with the Pegasus Flight Leader Juno, and after surviving through the war against Bern as well as Juno's self-realized limitation of her prowess after becoming a mother, abdicated her position to Zelot, so he became the first king of Ilia. | |

An episode of Buck Rogers in the 25th Century had this. All men were slaves and kept docile through the use of a drug in their food. An enemy civilization realized this and planned on invading. Buck somehow secretly managed to prevent the drug from being put in the food anymore and so when the invasion happened all of the "docile" males rose up and protected their female owners. | |

Ōoku: The Inner Chambers has Tokugawa Japan mutate into this after decades of ravages by an endemic Red-faced Pox that attacks only men. With a gender ratio of 1:4 in favor of women, men who make it to adulthood are barred from any remotely dangerous or strenuous occupations as "precious seed-bearers" while women have taken over all positions of authority. Once a vaccine to prevent Red-faced Pox is created the gender ratio slowly gets back to normal, and thus men began taking positions of authority again. | |

Themyscira, Wonder Woman's home, in Justice League. The fact that the League saved the inhabitants from Hades didn't save Wonder Woman from being banished for bringing men into their midst. Oddly, the men she was kicked out for bringing in were honored as heroes, as they enforced the rules more out of tradition and fear of the gods than genuine dislike, at least in that instance. Flash even tries to stand up against this, however Batman calms him down and points out it is just as hard or even harder for them to enforce the rule. Eventually, Hippolyta decided "screw it" and allowed Wonder Woman to come back, in order to help close the gates of Tartarus again. Then gave her full access of her powers. | |

Fallout: Equestria is an odd example; due to the heavy Recursive Fanfiction nature of the setting, individual Stables and pre-War Equestria may or may not fall into this trope. In the original Fallout: Equestria, it's noted that Pre-War Equestria was was a matriarchy and thus all Stables were built with the operational rule that the lead authority of each was to be a mare, with the only exception being Stable 24, a social experiment into the viability of patriarchynote ironically, it wasn't destroyed by political upheaval, but because a unicorn filly named Quanta accidentally caused a Wild Magic surge that fused a number of the Stable's pets into a monstrous killing machine that slaughtered the population. In Fallout: Equestria - Project Horizons, Stable 99 is made up almost exclusively of mares; stallions, or "bucks", are a small minoritynote 40 stallions vs. 500 mares who have no legal rights and whose population is carefully controlled — their only purpose in Stable 99's society is procreation, which amongst other things means their consent in sex is unimportant and they are euthanized when they pass their biological fertility peak. | |

Traditional family structures in Jeju, Korea may also qualify, for the exact opposite reason. Women, rather than men, were responsible for the then-menial, low-class job of free diving for conchs, pearls, and abalone. The income from this meant that women essentially became the primary breadwinners on periphery islands where farming was entirely impractical (such as Jeju and Mara...not that Mara), and thus led to a reversal of traditional social roles compared to the mainland. | |

My Little Pony: Dream Valley/Ponyland in My Little Pony 'n Friends consists of mares, their daughters, and only one male (a baby dragon named Spike). The male ponies are nomadic, while the female ponies...make do. However, in Friendship Is Magic's (2010) setting, Equestria is home to civilized ponies of both male and female persuasion. Lauren Faust explicitly says the guys are all working voluntarily for pay. For whatever it's worth, in Real Life, horses do behave in a matriarchal fashion. |

Subverted in Diablo II. While the Amazons certainly sound like this, in reality, the only female-exclusive social role is military, since women are smaller and more agile, letting them fight in their native terrain easier. Men can be whatever else they want, up to and including High Priest. | |

One episode of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe (1983) saw the gang visit a world where this was the norm. Women ran the place, while men were subjugated and forced to do menial labor. Of course by the end of the episode, the two genders had reconciled. Interestingly, the leader of the women and the leader of the men were implied to be a married couple. | |

The Outer Limits (1995): The episode "Lithia" takes place in the year 2055, where the world is populated only by women. Almost all of the men were killed years earlier in a war, and the plot starts with a male soldier who's suddenly awakened from cryogenic suspension. He adjusts to the society, but is unsettled by the fact that power must be churned manually through a mill when there's a power plant a relatively short distance away. His attempts to "solve" this problem escalate until someone gets killed, at which point he's frozen again after we get the Cruel Twist Ending—he's not the only man in storage-the leaders of this society found several and tried reintroducing them to the population, with disastrous results every time. | |

Nineteenth century New Bedford partially qualifies. As all the men were away killing big adorable sea mammals the wives often ruled much of the city. Traditional family structures in Jeju, Korea may also qualify, for the exact opposite reason. Women, rather than men, were responsible for the then-menial, low-class job of free diving for conchs, pearls, and abalone. The income from this meant that women essentially became the primary breadwinners on periphery islands where farming was entirely impractical (such as Jeju and Mara...not that Mara), and thus led to a reversal of traditional social roles compared to the mainland. Similarly, in much of Iceland historically most men were off fishing throughout the year, while women held down the fort at home. As many died when out on the rough seas, it became the norm for couples to not marry so the women avoided being widows. The majority of children in such areas were thus born out of wedlock, long before it became widely acceptable in the West. |

In The Law of Purple, Myranian culture is extremely sexist in favor of the women, who can scramble a person's mind and/or memories through skin-to-skin contact. Myranian men lack these powers and are more often than not viewed merely as sex objects and breeding stock. We do see two Myranian women with much more moderate attitudes, but the Myranian with the most screentime, Shi Shi, is on record as saying that "Men's heads need to be empty so they can stay safe and inside!" in complete earnestness. (This is why she's so antagonistic toward Lette—as far as she's concerned, Blue is her toy, and she doesn't feel like sharing.) | |

Discworld: Spoofed in Interesting Times. Rincewind is stuck on an island and is found by a tribe of lovely Amazons who have lost all their men to a highly specific plague and require him to repopulate their tribe. Sadly, Rincewind is magically "rescued" before he can obtain his greatest fantasy (potatoes). Another spoof in Eric, where the mildly sex-obsessed Eric has visions of lost kingdoms of Amazons who use men as slaves for the very specific tasks they need men for. A footnote explains that these tribes do exist, and their slaves are expected to sort out the funny noise in the attic. |

In Y: The Last Man, every male mammal on Earth (save two, or so it seems at first) dies, leaving the entire world to the women. While society is severely screwed up, it has much more to do with the practical effects of 48% of the world population disappearing overnight than which 48% it was that died off. The long-term effects on the biosphere, given that the Depopulation Bomb affects all mammals and not just humans, are a source of constant concern, although the Distant Finale shows that humanity muddles along somehow. | |

The Viera from Final Fantasy XII live in segregated societies, with males living seperately from the females. Although no male Viera is ever shown in the Ivalice games, there are constant references by the females and Word of God says they exist. Final Fantasy XIV also features Viera, including the first physical appearance of male ones; still, their population is noted to be 80% female and their societies are made up entirely of women while the men live solitary lives as "Wood-warders", roaming protectors of the forest, only rarely visiting the villages to mate and take any young males into their care to train. | |

An episode of The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr. brought Brisco and Professor Wickwire (and eventually Lord Bowler too) to "No Man's Land," a ghost town that was colonized by disaffected women who felt that they were entitled to the same American Dream as men (instead of "watch my man get successful and have a small army of babies"). For the most part they're okay with the idea of men, they'd just rather keep to themselves until men are ready to play on their terms; except for one particular hardass who's perfectly willing to throw Professor Wickwire and a gravely injured Brisco out of town just because the sign says "No Man's Land" and the person who needs medical attention has the wrong wedding tackle (fortunately for Brisco, she gets overruled). | |

Mako Mermaids: An H₂O Adventure has the Mako mermaid pod. They are not a Single-Gender Race, despite initial appearances; they just send all their males to live among humans due to a war across gender lines in the past. Given the implication that they age at close to a human rate and the fact that they rarely mingle with humans (prior to the series' start, at least), and given that most if not all of the major mermaids so far appear to be heterosexual, the issue of reproduction is left a mystery. | |

Her all-female army is defeated by Glinda the Good's all-female army, Princess Ozma takes the throne, and from then on, the genders are basically equal in Oz. | |

In Everworld, the Amazons are shown among the series' many mythological elements. They apparently have a habit of attacking and conquering other nations, including Egypt (which was political unstable for various reasons). Feminist April seems to like them, and Christopher was beginning to get cozy with their queen... until Senna points out that according to the mythology, they murder male babies and sell weaker daughters into slavery. Whether or not this is true isn't shown, but they did apparently execute a man for fathering twin sons with one of them and were not generally portrayed as nice people. | |

In Xanth, the harpies (who are about three-fourths female as it is) went through a phase like this, after a spell made all the males die out. Since harpies are half-human and half-vulture, they survived by mating with humans and vultures in alternate generations, but apparently such unions could only produce daughters for some reason. Eventually one male harpy is discovered to be trapped in the Brain Coral's stasis, and when released manages to fix the problem. | |

In the Warlock Series novels, the Wyvern cities are all female. All females can dream, and males can't. In Storm Over Warlock, Shann Lantee, and to a lesser extent Ragnar Thorvald, demonstrate that human males can, which makes them acceptable. In Ordeal in Otherwhere, Charis Nordholm is brought to deal with them as a woman. The last woman had been driven mad by their psychic contact, but Charis is taken in and trained. The males of the race, however, receive off-world assistance that lets them nullfiy the Power, leading to many issues. At the end, Thorvald appoints her to deal with the Wyvern cities on the basis of his broad emergency powers and the obvious need to appease them. In Forerunner Foray, Ziantha scorns Riss Lantee's claim to have been Wyvern-trained: everyone knows they don't deal with males. |

In Overlord, the Heaven's Peak Abyss is literally a hellish vision of this - the women (who have acquired Glowing Eyes of Doom and Waif-Fu skills from the powers of the hellish dimension) are all holed up in a marble-halled mansion filled with beautiful and expensive things, while the men - who are apparently unable to stand upright, and thus crawl around on the ground - are put to work as cleaners, gardeners, and occasionally footstools. Being who you are, however, your response to this setup is, of course, to kick down their doors, beat them into submission, and then carry them back to your castle as servants. | |

The Drow in Yet Another Fantasy Gamer Comic are a female-ruled society where the male-female dynamics are completely flipped—captured men are often kept as sex slaves and Wolf (a high ranking and very attractive male) basically slept his way into his post. He finds nothing shameful about this. In fact, he uses it to taunt high elves who try to mock his masculinity. | |

GUN×SWORD has Misshogi, where men are forbidden and all the women wear bathing suits (the founder is a bathing-suit designer, and the name of the town is a homonym on mizugi). It's ultimately revealed this is the result of the founder reacting to her breakup way worse than usual. Made even worse to the fact that her boyfriend didn't break up with her, he just didn't like her new swimsuit design. | |

Girls Only, a speculative fiction webcomic where a school founded by straw feminists has a seriously unbalanced ratio of girls to boys, and where the boys are treated like slaves, including as sex slaves. The main male protagonists manage to avoid this by being the school's yaoi boys. | |

Star Trek Novelverse: The Pak'shree homeworld. Pak'shree are born neuter, become male at puberty (and spend their adolescence having sex and competing to do so), before becoming female at maturity. All Pak’shree in authority are thus female by default. As male and immature are synonymous, Pak'shree often have trouble relating to males of other races without sounding (unintentionally) sexist. The inhabited worlds of the Cygnet system are also examples of Lady Land. Cygnet XIV, the Cygneti homeworld, was historically (22nd century) blatantly sexist towards males, with intellect and authority only ever considered feminine traits. This causes problems for male humans in the Star Trek: Enterprise Relaunch. Holor Sethe in the Star Trek: Titan series demonstrates that in some ways it hasn't changed too much by the 24th century. By the time of Star Trek: Voyager Relaunch, the all-female Klingon warriors of the qawHaq'hoch have established their headquarters on Cygnet IV. Since Klingons are patriarchal, and usually Klingon females operating without any males would be seen as odd, Cygnet might well be the nearest system to Klingon space where no-one would blink to see an all-female quasi-political organization. The Megarite homeworld of Megara, where the ruling matriarchs are considered to be the more sophisticated of the species. They spend their lives sitting on beaches, doing little else, and consider travel to be "beneath" a female. The males are relegated to the distasteful realm of offworld trade and diplomacy, though many of them seem to enjoy it, being considerably more raucous and spontaneous than the somewhat stuffy females. Of course, there are exceptions, those Megarites who reject the traditional system. The young female Spring Rain On Still Water (in Star Trek: Ex Machina) prefers the more adventurous male life, and has been condemned by her matriarchs for "lowering" herself. The Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Relaunch presents a variant with the Cardassians. While government and the military are male-dominated and an infertile female faces ostracism, women dominate engineering and the sciences and often don't think males are smart enough to do those jobs. |

A Mighty Demon Slayer Grooms Some Ponies: Queen Rosey comments that the Flutter Ponies keep their stallions at home and safely tucked away, looking after the children, instead of allowing them to roam far and free as the Dream Valley ponies did. Dream Valley itself is a weird take on the trope; stallions live apart from the mares by choice and simply travel to the Valley on a semi-regular schedule, thus forcing the mares to handle self-governance and raising the children. Seaponies have a gender-inverted version of the Dream Valley set-up, since seapony stallions are the ones who get pregnant. | |

In the CoDominium novel Blood Vengeance, a hidden society of "Amazons" lives in an isolated valley and is largely regarded as legend. They reproduce by having a pact with several nomad tribes who, every few years, return to a meeting ground and mate with the women warriors; male children are given to the tribes (or "to the earth" — i.e., killed), and females are kept and raised by the women. The pact also, of course, includes vows of absolute secrecy about the whole arrangement. | |

A Brother's Price takes place in a world where few males are conceived and even fewer survive to adulthood. That, combined with the complete subversion of STD Immunity, shapes human society. When men are seen outside the home, they're always veiled to avoid inciting women, and escorted by armed sisters or wives. "Husband raids" — abductions — are not legal anymore, but that doesn't mean they don't happen. | |

Dungeons & Dragons: The subterranean drow, in the Forgotten Realms and Greyhawk settings, live in a vicious theocracy ruled by a tyrannical Matriarchy devoted to the demonic spider-goddess Lolth in a society below the surface called the Underdark. Almost all men are either warrior grunts, mid-level military commanders, sycophantic courtesans, easy sacrifices to dark gods, or slave labour. The women are bondage-gear-wearing, sword-swinging Dominatrixes, sadistic military commanders, bondage-gear-wearing whip-wielding dominatrix priestesses, or the upper class of ruling Matron Mothers who enforce Lolth's dogma. However, the reason the Underdark is such a Crapsack World is less because women are in charge and more because of Lolth, who is a Chaotic Evil Ax-Crazy Jerkass God who believes that constantly vying for power and having Chronic Backstabbing Disorder is the proper way to live.invoked Forgotten Realms also has the Rashemen, a barbarian society ruled by a group of women called the Gray Witches. Somewhat subverted in that all "manly" activities (fighting, drinking, wrestling grizzly bears, etc.) are still done by men, they just happen to hold women in awe because women can use magic. There are male mages in Rashemen, the vremyonni, but they're cloistered away making magical items. The boys who decline to become vremyonni when they come of age are sworn to secrecy and exiled. |

A Thing of Vikings: Much like in the source material, the Bog-Burglars are an (almost) all-female tribe (there are some men to have children with, but the society is decidedly matriarchal). Because of this, they have been stereotyped by foreign people as being either a tribe of women sex-starved for men or are exclusively populated with lesbians. Given that same-sex relations are not considered weird to them and Cami is a bisexual who freely admits to having slept with both men and women, it seems that both rumors have a grain of truth to them. | |

In Knights of Xentar, the protagonist and his buddy has to breach a barrier keeping men out (by using a special twig and two magical berries - Does This Remind You of Anything??) to enter a women-only kingdom and fetch an old friend. On the other hand, the women aren't that bothered by the sudden arrival of two men - as this is a h-game, there are plenty of opportunities for... random encounters. The queen comments that the whole idea turned out worse than planned, and fears that within twenty years or so, she'll face an uprising by some very frustrated women. | |

To avoid death at the hands of the Goa'uld Moloch, a group of female warriors have set up a separate society where they can raise baby girls they manage to smuggle out of the temple. While the older women do not necessarily have any hatred for men (their leader, Ishta, develops a bit of a relationship with Teal'c), most of the younger girls have never even seen a man. | |

The Legend of Zelda: The Gerudo's Fortress in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is inhabited solely by women, and there is only one male born to their tribe every hundred years; around the time the game takes place, the man happens to be Ganondorf. The same goes for their Termina equivalents, the Gerudo Pirates, in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. In The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Gerudo Town has a strict ban on males from entering (with the strange exception of Gorons, who appear to be a One-Gender Race of males and are just as confused as you are as to why they're allowed in), meaning that for Link to get in he has to disguise himself in women's clothing. This is Deconstructed, as well: the reason for the ban is not out of animosity towards men, but rather to encourage Gerudos to venture out into the world and find a mate instead of settling. This tradition isn't without its difficulties, however: Gerudos tend to be awkward when talking to Hylian men, and there is a special class in Gerudo Town dedicated to the art of wooing a potential mate. And several married Gerudo openly vent to you about the law meaning that when market season comes and they come back to the city to sell their wares, they have to leave their male family members back home and don't like being separated from them. By the time of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, the chief makes a special exemption for Link to enter as he pleases in thanks for saving the town, though most of the Gerudo grumble about it until he helps fight off the Gibdos. |

On Tuchanka in Mass Effect 2, Wrex arranged for the female krogan to form their own all-female clans. Since they are just as big and strong as the males and there are only very few remaining fertile females in the entire species, all of the male clans want to be on their good side or they simply won't get any more chances to breed new sons for their own clans. And even if one clan would try to capture females, the female clans would just have to ask all the other male clans to get them back. | |

The Tarka from Sword of the Stars have a mild take on this trope. Tarka society is ridiculously structured by human standards with an incredibly complex pecking order and status level, but generally all 'intellectual' parts of said society, like those concerned with science, teaching, higher engineering and politics, are all but barred to Tarka males. This is because of deep-rooted prejudice that males, due to their male sex hormones, are too emotional and irrational to do well in these sectors. Despite this, Tarka females cannot hope to possess the sheer charisma of a Changed male (a male that has reached full sexual maturity; an event that only happens to about 1 in 1000 male Tarka), and thus Changed males are given the overall leadership positions in Tarka society... Though not without having a few females around to prod him into making 'correct' decisions. | |

Mass Effect has several examples: The asari are a One-Gender Race of female-appearing aliens (that is, they have feminine sexual characteristics, most asari refer to themselves with female pronouns, and they reproduce by linking nervous systems with a partner but give birth vaginally) and the few men on their planets are all aliens. On Tuchanka in Mass Effect 2, Wrex arranged for the female krogan to form their own all-female clans. Since they are just as big and strong as the males and there are only very few remaining fertile females in the entire species, all of the male clans want to be on their good side or they simply won't get any more chances to breed new sons for their own clans. And even if one clan would try to capture females, the female clans would just have to ask all the other male clans to get them back. The salarians are a race of amphibians who only hatch females from fertilized eggs (unfertilized eggs hatch males). While women are only a very small minority, politics is their exclusive domain, with the notable exception of their representative on the Citadel Council. |

Star Trek: Star Trek: The Original Series: In "Tomorrow is Yesterday", the planet Cygnet XIV is mentioned as a female-dominated planet, in which the Enterprise went to for repairs. They allegedly decided the computer "lacked personality" and gave it one- a female voice which called the Captain "dear" and had, according to Spock, "an unfortunate tendency to giggle". (Why, and how straight this explanation can be taken, is anyone's guess.) In the much-maligned episode "Spock's Brain", the Eymorg is a Lady Land of beautiful but childlike women who live in an automated Underground City, abduct the Morg—the male Future Primitives who live on the desolate surface of the planet—and use them for servants and procreation. The women aren't simple because they're women, but because thousands of years in a physical Lotus-Eater Machine has atrophied their intelligence; otherwise, it takes Men Are Strong, Women Are Pretty to an extreme. The Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Angel One" has a society where women are not only in charge of everything, but naturally physically stronger than the men, while the men (who all seem effeminate by earth standards) dress mainly for sex appeal and are the cooks, secretaries, servants, etc. The Star Trek: Voyager episode "Favorite Son" has an all-female society of humanoid aliens called Taresians, who secretly implant males of other humanoid species with a bio-forming virus that makes them believe that they are long-lost Taresians being driven by instinct to return home to mate. This is necessary because the process of mating inevitably kills the male, and apparently they're struggling to find volunteers. (You'd think fixing that would be easier than turning males from other species into Taresians, really, but hey.) And inevitably, designated Chew Toy Harry Kim comes down with the virus and has to be rescued. |

Final Fantasy IV has a much softer version of this trope in Troia; the governing Epopts are all female, the soldiers are ladies, and the sole male you find in the castle (barring Edward) is a nurse of all things. However, the Troians seem to have no bias against men, as evidenced by their warm reception of your (at that point) all-male party. | |

The Mithra race in Final Fantasy XI are mostly female while the males Stay in the Kitchen. The Mi'qote in Final Fantasy XIV were the same thing until demand from the player base requested that there should be playable males. While male Mi'qote NPCs are seen, they pale in comparison to the amount of females you can meet. The males are either used to help keep the population alive or they go on their own adventures until needed while the females do everything else. | |

In Animorphs, one of the alien species, the Helmacrons, are female dominated, with the males serving as slaves. By the end of their first appearance, the Animorphs have convinced the male Helmacrons to stand up for their rights, leading to a civil war. Notably, there's no feminist or anti-feminist message here — both genders are totally psychotic. Arguably also serves as an aversion to Insect Gender-Bender, since the Helmacrons seem to resemble bugs (including by being less than an inch tall). | |

The Wheel of Time: Common Knowledge says that almost everywhere else, women are the ones in charge. In fact, however, pretty everywhere it translates to genders being unusually equal and somewhat chauvinistic towards other. One true example of Lady Land is the town of Far Madding, which has basically Renaissance attitudes gender-reversed (men are inherently inferior). For historical reasons, the ruler of Andor must be a queen (and the Lion Throne was built for a woman, so it's said that no man can feel comfortable sitting in it). Both men and women can be High Seats of noble houses, however, and there are various men who made plans to usurp the throne. Within the context of magic, this is justified — the male well of magical energy was actually poisoned by the Dark One in the last conflict between him and the Dragon. Men who wield magic are mentally and physically corrupted by the use of the magic. Before Rand and Nynaeve destroy the taint on Saidin by pitting its destructive force against that of the corrupted city Shadar Logoth, the only ways to save those male wizards were to neuter their power or place them in anti-magic zones called Steddings, but those drove them to suicide and culled magic from the general population. The Red Ajah, the sorority among Aes Sedai devoted to hunting down male Channelers, almost collapsed when they discovered how they'd brought the distribution of magical talent down from 10% of the population to several thousand people. |

Like the above comic book example, the isle of Themyscira appears in the DC Comics-based DC Extended Universe. The Amazons were a race of female warriors who retreated to the island after the war that killed their creators, the Greek gods. Wonder Woman: Diana/Wonder Woman grew up as the only child on the island. She leaves it for good to confront Ares during World War I. Justice League: The Amazons kept a Mother Box hidden on the isle, and Apokoliptian warlord Steppenwolf lands on the isle to retrieve it. Wonder Woman 1984: The isle appears again, in flashbacks of Diana's childhood including games that she attended. |

Themyscira in the Wonder Woman comic books is the home of the Amazons and their princess, the titular character. Whether men are even allowed on the island is a question that is answered in different ways over the years. (The typical answer is "No, unless Wonder Woman invites them"; however, unlike the page image they will usually let a drowned, starving man into their hospital before deporting him). Also, there are occasional jokes about what the Amazons do for fun on an island inhabited only by women... Wonder Woman (1942): As originally envisioned it was technically fine for men to be on Paradise Island, Reformation Island and Science Island so long as they were not subjugating anyone and were there with an Amazonian invite, which usually came with an escort. They were however forbidden to set foot in the capitol by Aphrodite's decree and when Steve Trevor was in the capitol outskirts for medical treatment he was blindfolded while leaving. (He wasn't yet recovered enough for walking). Per the George Pérez reboot, Themyscira was almost a female Valhalla, only instead of soldiers who fell in battle, it was populated by women who fell to domestic violence. With the New 52 reboot, Themyscira has taken elements from the most extreme Greek tales of the Amazons and exaggerated them- making their society violently homicidal towards men, who are only used as breeding stock or chattel for trade. Wonder Woman (Rebirth) retconned this version of the island into a fake, and the real Amazons are not so violent. Golden and Silver Age comics established that under "Aphrodite's Law," if a man stepped foot on Paradise Island, the Amazons would lose their immortality and powers.noteAmusingly, the law also extended to Manno the Merman, who quite literally has no feet to set onto the island...(Steve Trevor was nursed back to health on a neighboring Amazon-controlled island where this rule didn't apply.) The page image is actually from Wonder Woman 216, in 1975, which states that Aphrodite's law is any Amazon who sees a man set foot on the island will fall in love with him to the point that they fight over him like barbarians. In both Wonder Woman (1942) and Wonder Woman: Earth One, the Earth of the 31st century is a matriarchal utopia in which Amazon ideals rule the world. By the 853rd Century in DC One Million the Amazons have left Earth and colonized Venus, turning it into a Lady Land where men can't set foot. |

New Eden in The Goddamned is an isolated nunnery cult populated entirely of women. They believe that the "sons of Adam" (regular human men) are impure and their warrior caste will routinely leave the mountain range to kill men and kidnap their virgin daughters to replenish their stock of "brides". These "brides" are routinely sacrificed to God where they "marry the sons of God" (i.e. raped by angels) and produce Nephilim spawn that they keep in pens. | |

Star Trek: The Original Series: In "Tomorrow is Yesterday", the planet Cygnet XIV is mentioned as a female-dominated planet, in which the Enterprise went to for repairs. They allegedly decided the computer "lacked personality" and gave it one- a female voice which called the Captain "dear" and had, according to Spock, "an unfortunate tendency to giggle". (Why, and how straight this explanation can be taken, is anyone's guess.) In the much-maligned episode "Spock's Brain", the Eymorg is a Lady Land of beautiful but childlike women who live in an automated Underground City, abduct the Morg—the male Future Primitives who live on the desolate surface of the planet—and use them for servants and procreation. The women aren't simple because they're women, but because thousands of years in a physical Lotus-Eater Machine has atrophied their intelligence; otherwise, it takes Men Are Strong, Women Are Pretty to an extreme. |

Sliders: The episode "Love Gods" sees most of the men in the world having been killed via germ warfare. Women generally take over society, while the surviving men (at least those with a healthy sperm count) are kept in compounds. The men are to impregnate the best possible women in order to rebuild the population, especially before another country does so. (The men that succeed the most are afforded many luxuries.) Naturally, when our heroes get there, the male characters are instantly mobbed and taken into custody. The episode "The Weaker Sex" takes place on a parallel world where women took over and became the dominant sex because they wanted an end to war. All politicians, professionals, athletes, etc. are female and men are relegated to being house husbands or secretaries. Women are also INCREDIBLY sexist toward men (Quinn gets a job based solely on his looks, which the boss keeps commenting on, and Rembrandt has what turns out to be a one-night stand with a woman he thought really liked him.) Professor Arturo tries to improve the system by running for mayor, considering staying if he wins. The initial results announcement claims he lost and so he slides out, but then the audience learns that there was an error and he did win after all. |

The Elder Scrolls: Throughout the series, this seems to be the case for the priesthood of Dibella, the Aedric Divine Goddess of Beauty, who is also associated with the more carnal and sexual aspects of love. There doesn't seem to be a specific rule precluding men from her priesthood and in fact, there are stories of males being blessed by Dibella as well as females, but the vast majority of it is made up of women nonetheless. In Morrowind, all of the guards, retainers, shopkeepers, and other service providers in Tel Mora, home of the man-hating Telvanni councilor Mistress Dratha, are female. Dratha is particularly hostile toward a male Player Character, refusing to give him her sidequests and making it very challenging to get her vote for Telvanni Hortator. However, no one besides Dratha herself is particularly misandrous, and a male PC is free to wander the town, use the services, and complete other quests. |

One Piece: The Kuja tribe consists entirely of women trained in the ways of the warrior. While it is stated that women of the island leave, return pregnant, always give birth to daughters, the population at large knows so little about men that it takes the eldest one in a group to even identify Luffy as male. In a semi-example, there is also the Momoiro Island, home to the Kamabakka Kingdom, where everybody is a transvestite. And guess which one of the Straw Hats gets trapped there... |

Outsider has the Loroi, an apparently matriarchal race of Blue Skinned Space Babes with telepathic powers. Females naturally outnumber males 8 to 1, and the principle social function of the males is reproduction. The males are presumably seen as too valuable to risk in warfare, hence all their soldiers and military personnel are female. | |

Futurama: "Amazon Women in the Mood": Their version of the Amazons may be heavily biased against men, but their idea of punishment is not wholly unlikable. In "The Late Phillip J. Fry", Fry, the Professor, and Bender end up far in the future in a technologically advanced society that consists entirely of women. They offer to fix the boys' time machine so they can get back to the right time period...AFTER they have a fertility banquet to honor their visitors since "even very old and stupid males are prized". Bender, who was upset that they forced him to leave a future where robots were annihilating the human race, cuts their visit short. |

Green Antarctica: The Ghault are the only Tsalal culture to be a matriarchy. Due to their culture involving regular alcohol consumption, but also being aware of the damage alcohol does to fetal development, women are the only ones to not be drunk a majority of the time. Notably, being matriarchal doesn't make them any nicer or less terrifying than the other Tsalal—their history is full of tales of cruel "witch-queens". | |

Downplayed in Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget. The Island community consists primarily of hens, Ginger is the de-facto leader and there there are only four total male members (Rocky, Fowler and Rat Brothers Nick and Fletcher).

Final Fantasy: Final Fantasy IV has a much softer version of this trope in Troia; the governing Epopts are all female, the soldiers are ladies, and the sole male you find in the castle (barring Edward) is a nurse of all things. However, the Troians seem to have no bias against men, as evidenced by their warm reception of your (at that point) all-male party. The Viera from Final Fantasy XII live in segregated societies, with males living seperately from the females. Although no male Viera is ever shown in the Ivalice games, there are constant references by the females and Word of God says they exist. Final Fantasy XIV also features Viera, including the first physical appearance of male ones; still, their population is noted to be 80% female and their societies are made up entirely of women while the men live solitary lives as "Wood-warders", roaming protectors of the forest, only rarely visiting the villages to mate and take any young males into their care to train. The Mithra race in Final Fantasy XI are mostly female while the males Stay in the Kitchen. The Mi'qote in Final Fantasy XIV were the same thing until demand from the player base requested that there should be playable males. While male Mi'qote NPCs are seen, they pale in comparison to the amount of females you can meet. The males are either used to help keep the population alive or they go on their own adventures until needed while the females do everything else. Final Fantasy XV has the nation of Lestalum, where the women take care of politics and the vital engineering jobs while the men Stay in the Kitchen. One man in Lestalum can be overheard discouraging his son from wanting a job like his mother. |

The Vulpine race in Terinu skirts the edges of this. They have a monotheistic Goddess based religion, noble inheritance goes through the female line and All There in the Manual explains that female head of the household is considered the Holy Den Mother's representative in the household, and has final approval over any junior household members' choices for marriage. On the other hand they supposedly have functional equality of the sexes outside those restrictions. | |

In The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Gerudo Town has a strict ban on males from entering (with the strange exception of Gorons, who appear to be a One-Gender Race of males and are just as confused as you are as to why they're allowed in), meaning that for Link to get in he has to disguise himself in women's clothing. This is Deconstructed, as well: the reason for the ban is not out of animosity towards men, but rather to encourage Gerudos to venture out into the world and find a mate instead of settling. This tradition isn't without its difficulties, however: Gerudos tend to be awkward when talking to Hylian men, and there is a special class in Gerudo Town dedicated to the art of wooing a potential mate. And several married Gerudo openly vent to you about the law meaning that when market season comes and they come back to the city to sell their wares, they have to leave their male family members back home and don't like being separated from them. By the time of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, the chief makes a special exemption for Link to enter as he pleases in thanks for saving the town, though most of the Gerudo grumble about it until he helps fight off the Gibdos. | |

Queen's Blade can come off this way; while it's partially due to natural story slanting, females are expected to be warriors to the point where not only can only a woman rule the land entire, but becoming Queen is done by winning a once every four years battle royal tournament that is women only. However, it's made clear that this doesn't apply evenly throughout their world; the local Japan equivalent, while technically under a child empress, is ruled in truth by the male ministers. | |

In The Gate to Women's Country, the sexes are strictly separated, and the female ruling elite runs a program designed to breed out stereotypically "masculine" traits (aggression, dominance, etc.). The sympathetic treatment of the female side, and the somewhat caricatured portrayal of males, strongly indicates that this is her idea of a feminist utopia. | |

In the second The Heroes of Olympus novel, we discover that amazon.com is run by actual Amazons. They like men — in their place — which seems to be providing manual labor for the company.

Hainish: "The Matter of Seggri" takes place on a planet where, due to unexplained genetic circumstances, there are sixteen adult women for every adult man. The result is a society in which women run everything, and men are made to live isolated from wider society in "castles". They're seen primarily as sources of sex and entertainment, and mentally unfit for education or participation in society. "Solitude" features a planet after a huge population crash. There is very little civilization at all, but the women live in semi-villages called "auntrings" and the men live as scattered hermits. |

In the Earth's Children series, it is widely believed that a child is conceived when the spirits of its parents combine. A man-hating side character took this theory and ran with it, believing that a society entirely composed of female would have exclusively female children; men are barred from their village, and all male children are killed at birth. Ayla is the only one who seems to notice that the only women there who get pregnant are the ones who sneak out for covert liaisons with male lovers... | |

Hani society in the Chanur Novels may not look like this at first glance, with its pampered and honored house lords for whom the women do all the work... until one realizes that it's actually patterned after that of real life lions and siring children and fighting for territory in apparently ritualized combat is about all that males are considered good for while the females take care of everything else, including most of the actual politics. Daughters are brought up in the household, sons who come of age are banished to fend for themselves so they don't threaten their father's position. And of course males aren't allowed into space because of their ostensibly fragile minds and hair-trigger tempers... (To be fair, it's hinted quite strongly that these attitudes are primarily a matter of tradition and upbringing and that Hani males aren't at the mercy of their biology. But that's the prevailing social dogma.) | |

As it turns out, this is due to a botched social engineering attempt to control the nobility and prevent them from warring with each other, and eventually centralize authority in the capital. After the war with the Principality, the pro-female system begins breaking down. | |

On the one hand the drow in this worldsetting have almost exclusively female leaders, but that doesn't stop them from being violent, racist, manipulative and murderous, but on the other they're not that much worse than real life empires, and the rarely seen light elves are patriarchal and just as bad. | |

Zigzagged with the Island of Femille in Voyages of the Wild Sea Horse. At first glance, it appears to only be inhabited by women, with the only visible menfolk all being visitors from other islands. Then it turns out there are plenty of native men... they're just all forced to wear women's clothes, perform traditionally womanly behavior, and have been bred for their androgynous beauty. The one thing that truly distinguishes men from women on Femille is that only women are allowed to practice martial arts; men who would fight must first forsake all family ties and join an order known as the Mourning Wood School. During their visit to the island, Ranma Saotome stays in female form and only exits the ship with his female crewmates to avoid any possible anti-male laws of the land, and ends up recruiting a dissident Femille boy named Harumi, who wants to learn to fight without joining the Mourning Wood. | |

However, in Friendship Is Magic's (2010) setting, Equestria is home to civilized ponies of both male and female persuasion. Lauren Faust explicitly says the guys are all working voluntarily for pay. For whatever it's worth, in Real Life, horses do behave in a matriarchal fashion. | |

Doctor Who: The Drahvins in Galaxy 4 are a malevolent Human Alien female-dominated culture with a social structure similar to social insects, with genetically engineered leader and worker classes of women and a few men kept around as sperm donors. The Sisterhood of Karn seen in The Brain of Morbius and "The Night of the Doctor" are an all-female theocracy on the planet Karn with massive psionic powers, the secret of immortality and a prickly relationship with their neighbors the Time Lords (the Doctor's own people, who live on the planet Gallifrey in the same solar system as Karn). Some expanded-universe material depicts them as The Remnant of an earlier Gallifreyan civilisation that was matriarchal and magic-based in nature. The serial The Happiness Patrol gives this trope a nod when two male guards complain to each other about the female guards getting better assignments and weaponry (all the positions of authority in their society are held by women, too). |

Star Trek Expanded Universe: Star Trek Novelverse: The Pak'shree homeworld. Pak'shree are born neuter, become male at puberty (and spend their adolescence having sex and competing to do so), before becoming female at maturity. All Pak’shree in authority are thus female by default. As male and immature are synonymous, Pak'shree often have trouble relating to males of other races without sounding (unintentionally) sexist. The inhabited worlds of the Cygnet system are also examples of Lady Land. Cygnet XIV, the Cygneti homeworld, was historically (22nd century) blatantly sexist towards males, with intellect and authority only ever considered feminine traits. This causes problems for male humans in the Star Trek: Enterprise Relaunch. Holor Sethe in the Star Trek: Titan series demonstrates that in some ways it hasn't changed too much by the 24th century. By the time of Star Trek: Voyager Relaunch, the all-female Klingon warriors of the qawHaq'hoch have established their headquarters on Cygnet IV. Since Klingons are patriarchal, and usually Klingon females operating without any males would be seen as odd, Cygnet might well be the nearest system to Klingon space where no-one would blink to see an all-female quasi-political organization. The Megarite homeworld of Megara, where the ruling matriarchs are considered to be the more sophisticated of the species. They spend their lives sitting on beaches, doing little else, and consider travel to be "beneath" a female. The males are relegated to the distasteful realm of offworld trade and diplomacy, though many of them seem to enjoy it, being considerably more raucous and spontaneous than the somewhat stuffy females. Of course, there are exceptions, those Megarites who reject the traditional system. The young female Spring Rain On Still Water (in Star Trek: Ex Machina) prefers the more adventurous male life, and has been condemned by her matriarchs for "lowering" herself. The Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Relaunch presents a variant with the Cardassians. While government and the military are male-dominated and an infertile female faces ostracism, women dominate engineering and the sciences and often don't think males are smart enough to do those jobs. Diane Duane's Rihannsu series (not formally part of the novelverse due to continuity issues, but often referenced by it) presents the Romulans as a downplayed example. They're gender-equal in theory, but in practice are mildly matriarchal: women outnumber men in the military and a male uses his mother's or wife's clan name. This is due to the lasting influence of the "Ruling Queen" Vriha t'Rehu, the first person to successfully claim rulership of Romulus and Remus (until the Remans overthrew her). Star Trek: The Eugenics Wars: Chen Tiejun, as a result of her separatist feminist ideology, founds a matriarchal colony on a small island off New Zealand. |

The Red Abbey of Maresi is an enforced version of this, as the island has powerful magic that will weaken if men are allowed to stay there long-term. The sisters are quite reasonable about it though: male children are allowed to live with their mothers, and they've rescued male sailors before. Unusually for a work set in medieval times, it's also mentioned to be explicitly trans inclusive, as one of the seven founders was a trans woman. | |

In Holly Potter and the Witching World, a Gender Flip Alternate Universe Harry Potter fic, the titular witching world is a Lady Land by necessity. Only about 10% of magical births are male, so magical society is dominated by witches. Wizards tend to be coddled, overprotected and kept out of the public eye since there are so few of them. | |

The backstory of the immortals in A World Out of Time is that, not needing each other for reproduction, and biologically arrested before hitting puberty, Boys and Girls formed two entirely separate and occasionally warring societies (both implied to be screwed up equally, but in different ways). When Earth's climate radically shifted, the Boys occupied the only remaining livable land in Antarctica, while the Girls, being situated closer to the equator, died off. | |

Josie and the Pussycats In Outer Space: "Warrior Women of Amazonia" had the planet Amazonia where women are trained to be warriors and men are enslaved and severely punished for any minor infraction like talking back to a woman. Their queen Merla constantly ranted that men were useless. They use a fake distress beacon to lure in travelers so they can enslave the men and force the women to join them, with the help of brainwashing to make them forget their pasts and have Fake Memories of always being in their ranks. It is notable that while the other episodes had the heroes solve the conflict of the planet they land on, they don't here. The only positive change Alan and Alexander accomplish is helping a male slave escape and go into hiding when they make their own escape from enslavement. When they manage to break the brainwashing on Josie, Melody, Valerie, and Alexandra, the group decides to just run back to their spaceship and escape the planet. | |

In "The Girl who was Mightier Than Superman" (Superman 180, October 1965), Supie is lured to the island nation of Florena, inhabited entirely by women. They're colonists from the planet Matrion, where women warriors ruled. Supie ends up Beaten By A Girl and says those very words on the cover. | |

The Hypolitan people in The Icemark Chronicles are basically this. Women are considered superior to men, and men only seem to gain status by association with a powerful woman. The southern Hypolitan in the third book take it up a notch; their men are used as Cannon Fodder, are literally slaves to their wives, and can be killed at any moment for insubordination or as a Human Sacrifice. | |

Hercules: The Legendary Journeys: It's actually in the first of the five movies that started the Series: "Hercules and the Amazon Women". That group turned out to have been going for less than a generation due to a rogue Hera cultist, and integrated back into the local (now all-male) village when the men apologized and accepted them on equal terms. Real Amazons, with an actual culture, showed up later. | |

In A Wizard in Rhyme, a land of Amazons is introduced where it's fine for males to come 'visit' in order to ensure production of more Amazons, but only for a limited time — stay just a day too long, and the male is hunted and killed by the Amazons. The Amazons suffer horribly (so to speak) when the main protagonist and another young male in love independently around the same time seek to pass through the land, as a man who refuses to mate and stay true to his loved one is considered a prize so rare that such a man can stay within its borders as long as desired and have virtually anything within reason he desires. | |

Khepri communities are this in the world of Perdido Street Station; only the females are sapient and have humanoid bodies. The males are non-sapient and look like foot-long beetles. They are essentially allowed to live in the corners of the females' houses and ignored, even being kicked out of the way, until a female needs her eggs fertilized. Many khepri females turn to each other, or even human men, for intellectually stimulating mates. That said, there is a cult who worship the khepri males as being closer to divinity and seeks to embrace their purely instinct-driven lifestyle as correct, holy behavior. | |

Earth in Armitage III is this, and the Greater-Scope Villain of the story. Straw Feminists have achieved such political power that women's rights have soared past "equal to men" to "the status of white South Africans during apartheid". In fact, this ultimately leads to the threat of The War of Earthly Aggression that drives the series' plot. Much of Mars' human population is male and when the feminist political group finds out that Martians have succeeded in producing "Thirds", a category of Ridiculously Human Robot that goes beyond a mere Sex Bot to being able to reproduce with humans, they demand Mars cease producing Thirds and destroy the ones it has created, or else they will invade and force them to do. Even before open warfare erupts, they are willing to send assassins and saboteurs to force Martian compliance. | |

In the Lensman book Second Stage Lensman, the planet Lyrane II was ruled by women, who could be accurately described as highly telepathic Amazons. Their "males", by comparison, were almost dwarfish, subnormal in intelligence, and notably irrationally violent; their constant fighting among themselves (to the death, naturally) was seen as a form of "natural selection" by the ruling females. The "Persons" (as the Lyranian women referred to themselves) used the surviving males for breeding purposes (roughly one male to thirty "persons") — and then the last one "calmly blasted the male's mind and went about her business". The "persons" were quite capable of killing with mental force — well, except when the intended target was a Second Stage Lensman like Kimball Kinnison, that is. The fact that exactly none of the Lyranian "persons" was capable of even tolerating, let alone working with, a male of any species of Civilization for more than about three picoseconds (without at least trying to fry his brain) required the promotion of Clarissa MacDougall to Lensman in order to perform an important mission there. The Lyranians defined MacDougall as a "near-person", most obviously because while she (a) not only shared their mental prowess, but actually exceeded it (even before she became an "L2" in Children of the Lens), she also (b) did not regard males as nothing but animals and (c) did not share their unconcern about public nudity. | |

The Transformers (Marvel): In planet Femax, men are apparently genetically inferior and so have to scratch out a living in the barren regions of the planet, while the women live in a concealed paradise. Their leader ends up falling for Cloudburst when he proves himself the equal of any woman. | |

The Star Trek: Voyager episode "Favorite Son" has an all-female society of humanoid aliens called Taresians, who secretly implant males of other humanoid species with a bio-forming virus that makes them believe that they are long-lost Taresians being driven by instinct to return home to mate. This is necessary because the process of mating inevitably kills the male, and apparently they're struggling to find volunteers. (You'd think fixing that would be easier than turning males from other species into Taresians, really, but hey.) And inevitably, designated Chew Toy Harry Kim comes down with the virus and has to be rescued. | |

The society in the "Futurequest" parts of ElfQuest (The Rebels and Jink) is a milder example, more or less modern Western sexism inverted in that you are more likely to see women than men in high ranks, from being in charge of the most prominent car race, or of research facilities, or being the head of the state (that spans very nearly the entire solar system). The most blatant example might be a male "starfleet" captain who caused a PR disaster being told to fix things and, "You're always claiming to be the equal of any female officer — prove it!". There's also deliberate flipping of stereotypes in some places, like a woman glued to the screen watching a car race while the man she lives with calls it silly and prepares to cook dinner. | |

Nagasarete Airantou is about an island with no men. When the male protagonist of the series accidentally winds up on the island, all the girls are so excited to have a male around that they do things like have tournaments to try to win the right to become his bride. | |

Abbott And Costello Go To Mars: Venus is home to an all-female society, including the Queen and cabinet. The men are treated as interesting curiosities, but in the end are rejected in favor of mere holograms of the former beefcake King and previous cabinet. | |

In Ghosts of Mars the human society on Mars is explicitly stated to be a matriarchy, and women are primarily seen in powerful positions. Doesn't stop the men from acting like machos, though. | |

In YuYu Hakusho Ice World or the Glacial Village is a floating island in Demon World that is an all female ice race that hates all men. Contact with men (especially the sexual kind) is forbidden. Hina left at one point and gave birth to a boy, Hiei, along with his sister Yukina. Hiei was quickly thrown to his death, as no men are allowed on the island. In the past when males were born they grew violent and the mother met a gruesome end. In the series Hiei also grew violent, but that could have been because he was raised by violent bandits and was left for dead at birth. | |

One part in a longer arc of Mandrake the Magician featured an amazon island where women ruled and men were docile housekeepers. After being captured, Mandrake attempts to regain their freedom by hypnotising one of the docile males into regaining his male dominance (which, curiously enough, involves making his man-skirt look like a pair of shorts). The man leads his fellow men in a revolt, overthrows the queen and establishes a "proper" male-controlled society... until the men go on a hunt and gets chased up a tree by a smug-looking boar. Amazon society returns to its stable old ways immediately, and Mandrake instead has to threaten to magically make the queen ugly to secure freedom. | |

Cygnet XIV, the Cygneti homeworld, was historically (22nd century) blatantly sexist towards males, with intellect and authority only ever considered feminine traits. This causes problems for male humans in the Star Trek: Enterprise Relaunch. Holor Sethe in the Star Trek: Titan series demonstrates that in some ways it hasn't changed too much by the 24th century. By the time of Star Trek: Voyager Relaunch, the all-female Klingon warriors of the qawHaq'hoch have established their headquarters on Cygnet IV. Since Klingons are patriarchal, and usually Klingon females operating without any males would be seen as odd, Cygnet might well be the nearest system to Klingon space where no-one would blink to see an all-female quasi-political organization. | |

In Draconia Chronicles a fantasy webcomic about warring nations of Dragon and Tiger people, both dominated by the respective females of the species. In a case of Bizarre Sexual Dimorphism while the females of the species are anthropomorphic, the males are feral with normal male tigers and huge dragons. The males of the Dragons abandoned the females for not stopping the war with the tigers, leaving the females to reproduce using an "elixir" and becoming an entirely female society. While the male Tigers are present, they are protected in sanctuaries for reproduction and such while the humanoid females take care of military fights and the like. | |

The Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Angel One" has a society where women are not only in charge of everything, but naturally physically stronger than the men, while the men (who all seem effeminate by earth standards) dress mainly for sex appeal and are the cooks, secretaries, servants, etc. | |
