Any RPGs with Gender War settings?
Remember that episode of Star Trek where men and women were totally segregated from each other and never interacted except violently?
Is there any RPG, good or terrible, that takes place in such a gender war setting? Where men and women are divided into two monogendered nations that are in constant conflict with each other. And all reproduction is done through cloning, (or gentlemen's agreements that involve the all-male country sending canisters of sperm to the all-female country) but in any case the masses don't know how sexual reproduction works or even that it's possible, and the two genders consider each other to be incompatible alien species.
Of all the crazy dystopian sci-fi futures, it's an interesting one to explore, as well as as that is so absurd that it makes for good dark comedy.

Can not recall seeing that particular setting, but might be interesting to dig around a bit and see....
So on the plus side if the party is going behind enemy lines they would have to dress the part.

Welcome, to IronHell.

Peculiar properties of spacetime ensure that the perception of the magnitude of Soon is fluid and dependent, not on an individual's time-reference, but on spatial and cultural location. A marketer generally perceives Soon as a finite, known, yet unspeakable time-interval; to a fan, the interval appears greater, and may in fact approach the infinite, becoming Never. Once the interval has passed, however, a certain time-lensing effect seems to occur, and the time-interval becomes vanishingly small. We therefore see the strange result that the same fragment of spacetime may be observed, in quick succession, as Soon, Never, and All Too Quickly.

Macho Women with Guns (MWWG) is a comedy role-playing game created by Greg Porter and published by Blacksburg Tactical Research Center (BTRC). (A D20 System version of the game is also available from Mongoose Publishing.) Nominally a science-fiction game, it parodies both action films and other role-playing games.
Taking advantage of the earthly chaos, Satan has dispatched his female minions, the Batwinged Bimbos From Hell, to rebuild society in a form he approves of. The Vatican has responded to Satan's plans by dispatching its elite group of warrior nuns, The Sisters of Our Lady of Harley-Davidson to combat the bimbos. The two groups of women compete (sometimes violently) to rebuild civilization by vanquishing post-apocalyptic menaces and male chauvinism.

Gender works. You could call it "Sex Wars" too, but that implies more a war fought about the act than the attribute.
"Gender War" gets iffy if the female side is TERF*s, but that could actually be a plot point, where there's a TERF faction within the broader Female Party.

You should gain sanity for finding out that the problems of a region are because there are fucking monsters there.

Just a heads up... Your post is pregnant... When you miss that many periods it's just a given.
