She pulls that little chain and the bib turns into an unflattering dress to deter unwanted advances. It’s a holdover from before thier ancestors decided to kill all the men.
She’s clearly a robot created by aliens who had only seen a picture of a woman in a strapless bra. Hence the unreality of her posture, expression and hair colour.
The same applies for all of her sisters. Look at the green-haired woman lifting up the cloth in the lower right corner.

No men = no superfluous clothing. Apart from the bib.

Complete, unabridged and completely original. Well, two out of three ain’t bad.

They had forgotten what men looked like, but they hadn’t forgotten what computers of the future were supposed to look like!

Purple hair on feminists goes back a long way. In 1958, radical feminist utopias had to be written by men.

No matter how futuristic Emsh painted the cover, she still looks like a lady from 1958.
August 10th, 2017 at 2:17 pm
To better tie the title to the cover shouldn’t she be looking at something other than his face?

If I wrote the book he would be from World Without Women.

“Is he supposed to be all pale and waxy like that?”
“How should I know, Margaret??!! I’ve forgotten what men look like!”

“Oh, wait. Is that a man? I thought it was a lima bean.”

Speaking of worlds without important things…do any of the GSS regulars live in Guam, perchance?
August 11th, 2017 at 12:13 am
I got nothin’ to add, save that this is currently #1.
The colors, the “fashion”, the wacky font… it’s all truly GSS.
Mr. GSSXN LOL and then spluttered “The colors!” when I showed him this.
Not Emsh’s finest hour.

She’s shocked and disappointed that the tent pole under the sheets was caused by that chin.

I don’t know but I think this is pretty great. Though it’s hard for me to consider anything Ed Emshwilller did much less than a masterpiece.

Way too skinny and too much of a jawline.
Although that would explain the main damsel’s expression.
