I feel like the author kept forgetting the premise of the story he's writing. He keeps throwing in these tropes but he's forgetting that these tropes work because they're MALE-centered in MALE-centered universes. In a world with such a massive gender skew, where women are the dominant and aggressive sex, they don't work.

For example, guys being arrogant about who they date. If women are as overly aggressive as they appeared in the first couple of pages, few guys would act like that so it shouldn't be a normative thing. Why? Because getting constantly hit on and seen as a sex object doesn't innately instill confidence, it mainly instills annoyance and disgust for the people who go through it.

Another one is that part about "Treating people like equals" when looking for a guy. Author-san, in this world, GUYS should be thinking that! Women are the DOMINANT SEX! They're the ones in position of power, they're the ones initiating and objectifying by your own mouth! You literally showed us the female equivalent of a Playboy who can't take "No" for an answer hitting on MC!

It just feels like he's throwing out the premise whenever it's convenient and expecting the reader not to notice.
No they probably are not the ones in the position of power. Men are still stronger than women in this world it looks like.

I remember reading a bit of this web novel, but not a whole lot. I'm looking forward to how the manga handles a particular love interest in this one.

Why bother with this when there are so many doujins made out of this premise. And they don’t beat around the bush.

Even Zettai Junshi seemed more entertaining :02:

A 1:5 ratio isn’t much, tbh.

At any engineering uni, you’d see 5 guys to 1 girl. And there isn’t much of a difference.
How can you go to an engineering uni and not realize there's a huge difference between a skewed ratio at a local university and a skewed ratio in the whole world? Try locking everybody into that university for life and you'll see the chaos that ensues.

Physical strength isn't the defining issue that would make Women the dominant force. It's the fact that if you let the 20% of men in your society die, you're doomed. For example, construction kills at least a thousand a year. If your population has 50K people, with a 1 in 5 ratio, 10,000 of them will be men. That means in 1 year, you've lost half of your societies already dwindling ability to breed. That means instead of a simple 80% never being able to reproduce, you're now stuck with 90% and growing

With how heavily the human population relies on men, they're not going to be anywhere near anything that could even be considered slightly dangerous. Women would have to step up and they would have to take charge and keep their men safe.

Now, I'm not disagreeing with you. Men being stronger and dominant is probably true for this manga. But I reiterate that my main complaint is that the author isn't letting the concept speak for itself. He's using it as a thin veil to tell a generic harem story, while ignoring the logistical and logical issues that stem from a population of 1 in 5. So yes, I fully expect things to be as "normal" as they are here on regular earth.

Edit: Calculation correction

Funny watching her melt instantly, but I've got a bad feeling about how this will develop

ofc in a world dominated by women males somehow have the upper hand still
yeah it doesnt make all that much sense. in such a case the high accumulated mutational load placed on men by sexual selection and other factors would be the other way around. so you'd have far more highly exceptional women, and far more idiots too.
i feel like these stories could be interesting if the authors got past "haha lots of segs" and seriously entertained the concept for a minute.

Well, I think how his kindness and his different demeanor manage to snatch her heart is sensible, relative to romcom logic anyway. This manga hook me for now.
