I think I can say, Love DNA XX was better.

Dude, Love DNAXX was fucking awful. Never before have I seen a series set in a society comprised entirely of women and yet still manage to be incredibly chauvinistic and patriarchal. Seriously, what a stupid concept. '“Oh, your men are dead are they? Have I got a solution for you! Just pretend some of your women are men so you can make sure all the discrimination and heterosexism that existed in your previous male dominated system never stops!”
I mean, I know Japan is really sexist compared to western countries and all but LoveDNAXX is just absurd. Its like the creator has never heard of feminism or gender equality and and thinks women actually just keep going along with the ridiculous system Japan has, where women are viewed as little more than obedient housewives. Yeah, cause that's totally something all the girls are in for, cause women like the kitchen so much that if the men died off they would get other women to tell them to stay in the kitchen. Its such a stupid, stupid, stupid concept.

TL:DR: Love DNAXX is stupid and sexist because it implies that patriarchy and male dominance is necessary for society to move forward and that femininity and feminine women are weak and worthless, while masculine women are freaks that exist solely to take the place of the man in a relationship and have no need to exist in a society with men in it.

laawwllll. Dood, the manga wasn't entirely terrible. The concept of the "Adam and Eve" system was developed by an older generation of women who used to be affiliated by men back in whatever age they were living in. If you read all the chapters including chapter 17, you can see that our heroines agree that the whole "Adam and Eve" concept is pretty friggin' dumb like you said. They even rebel against it plus have their sweet forbidden love affairs with each other. No one wants to be expected to fulfill a role by society just because they're assigned as a male or female or born as one. I think that's one of the points the Mangaka was trying to make.

Sorry. I was tired and grumpy and decided to rant about something I knew little about. Seriously, sorry.

While I don't think Love DNAXX was that great, did you actually read it? The main challenge of the story is that two girls can't be together because of arbitrary nonsense and there are numerous instances of characters lamenting the problems the system cause them. The ending even flat out says that the women who instituted the Adam/Eve system did it because they couldn't adjust to a world without men, right before saying that in a few years the system will be torn down because it's dumb.

The story pretty much agrees with you.

Yeah, I'm sorry about the rant. I was tired and stir crazy and just generally in a bad mood so I decided "Rant time!"

Clearly not my best decision.
And yeah, I had trouble getting through the first chapter and didn't really read beyond that. It just seemed too stupid to take seriously.
Again, sorry, seriously. This is just proof as to why I shouldn't be allowed on the internet when I'm tired.

I don't know what everyone is talking about. This makes perfect sense.
