It's one of the things that made me start side-eying the Walking Dead comics.

I haven't read "World Made by Hand" yet, but Wikipedia only lists male characters, so I'll probably give that one a pass. I really liked the Holdfast Chronicles. Women are second-class citizens for the most part, but it's A Bad Thing, not the natural progression of social norms. The second book in the series, "Motherlines," is the only book I'm aware of where there are no male characters.
