It’s a Man’s World is a LARP larp about masculinity in a world where all women have died.
In a not so distant future a plague has swept the world, killing everyone without a Y-chromosome. In the waste of the Disaster civilization still stands, but it is a doomed civilization.
However, in the newly formed Nordic union an advanced research project around artificial wombs is reaching its final stages, and potential parents are being screened. They are hoping to be chosen to raise the next generation of humans. Only, the rumored artificial womb project is really just a smoke screen. In fact, the joint-Nordic government shelters the last living female.
It's a Man's World is a genderflipped gender flipped take on the larp [[Mad About the Boy]], exploring a similar premise.
==Themes==
Every family on Earth has lost members to the Disaster. Nearly every home is broken. The suicide rates peaked following the Disaster and remain extremely high, especially among older men. Many have had their wounds reopened by a male family member taking his life a month or a year after the deaths of the women in the family. Disillusioned young men join up in gangs, roaming the streets and acting out their anger.
==Story summarySummary==
Three years have passed. Three very long years. But now there is finally a shred of hope, that you get to experience first hand.
