I take your point but it's an interesting issue, isn't it? What would the world look like if it was the norm for men to reproduce without women, and/or for women to reproduce without men?

It is indeed interesting (and reminds me of the axlotl tanks of Dune) but in this instance, the uterus ultimately comes from a woman anyway, so this particular medical feat (and the original question of this thread) doesn't really have much to do with it.
It's also much more practical (and already technically possible, I think?) for females to reproduce without males than the other way round, so that's the most likely development for the future.
I was also thinking of the Vorkosigan series, in which external technologically-assisted gestation and birth is a key liberatory technology.
