#how many of our problems would vanish if we really lived in a separatist society?

This might be a dumb confession, but I'm too shy to put it on my blog... yet I really want to get it off my chest. I want a novel/ comic book / series that only has women in it, written by women, for women. ONLY women. REAL women (No TIMs, no TIFs, no they/thems, just... women).
No sexualized outfits. No male gaze. No strategically ripped clothing. No useless high heels. No religion.
I want a nice futuristic setting where the XY chromosome is completely extinct, and instead, women scientists have actually utilized and mastered Nayernia's 2007 proposition to create fetuses from bone marrow. Incubators that perfectly immitate the environment in a uterus, down to the amniotic fluid with both mothers' DNA are now available. Women dating women is the default, and the extintion of the XY chromosome has caused some evolutionary processes where women are no longer attracted to men. The last man died 136 years ago. Society is flourishing and internalized misogyny is finally dissipating.
Would it be a perfect society? Of course not, because we, as human beings, aren't perfect. Exploitation might still exist, class division will probably still exist, bullying among youth will probably still exist - but when I think of the worst "industries" in the world that are all driven by men - trafficking, porn, cartels - doesn't it sound much more like a paradise compared to what we have today? Hell, even the beauty standard would change from what men find desirable to women's comfort and practicality. Say bye to racism too.
What would be the plot or the conflict if it's so paradise-like then? Well, I don't know, environmental issues? Technology going rogue? A bunch of young women trying to save near-extinct species? Or a few young women going on a high-tech expedition to explore the depths of the ocean that our contemporary society cannot explore due to insufficient durability in our technology? Young girls finding out about medieval witchcraft and trying to reconnect with nature and mother Earth while stile recognizing the convenience of tech? Idk, the sky's the limit when men are decentralized.
But above all? I'm partially happy that this piece of media doesn't exist. I can already imagine how vitriolic its reception would be from libfems, "centrists", incels, run-on-the-mill "leftist" men, "media critics", etc. I could already see the "journalist" artices calling it "woke" simply because it features only women, yet media that only has men in it is praised as genius. It would hurt seeing it be brought down by many for DARING to not centralize the penis.
I can also imagine that if this concept was ever in the hands of a man, he'd probably make the main character male (some BS about mutation and tech) and would 100% make at least half of the female cast be interested in him for no reason.
Sorry for the random ask, I just feel like ~creating~
I respect you, anon, for unloading that escapist daydream right into my inbox 😭
