I wish I could be there to see it, sugoi, ladies, may the best ma'am win.
But honestly, there would be WAY more arguments, but also WAY less murder
Like, men and women blame each for so much dumb shit. If you just took one gender away, the other gender suddenly would no longer have the second gender to blame for their problems. As a result, both a male only and female only society would turn on themselves pretty quick. I'd imagine both would still hold onto gender as an archaic concept, and the women who were more masculine would be either demonized or idolized, with the opposite happening to those who are more feminine.
IE: Masculine Women (cough Butch Lesbians cough) would probably just replace men sociologically, and the more feminine women would continue to function in traditional female gender roles. How trans people would fit into this is really interesting, but is a rabbit hole I'm just not interested in going down, much like Carrot's... nevermind.
Anyway, men would return to a society where they had been replaced by amazons.
All hail our feminine masculine overlords!

Women thrust into groups together tend to foster nurturing and familial environments, this comes with pros and cons... on the one hand they will be far less prone to violent crime (which is a good thing since there won't be any police force or military to help them), they are also less likely to band together in 'tribes' which means the wider community will benefit rather than the strong. On the other hand they struggle to make difficult/cold decisions in experiments and are less capable of doing physically demanding tasks by a lot.
The good thing is that if 4 billion people disappear from the planet there will be an abundance of resources which will give women time to pull their shit together.
My worry would be island nations though, like the UK. We rely on imports, and overseas travel would all but disappear for a long time. So I'd give first-world islanders about a year before they start eating their young.
Also it might be worth saying that while society may possibly (probably) collapse in that time, when men make their re-appearance in 5 years and 4 billion pairs of testicles flood the planet again society will DEFINITELY collapse. War/Famine/Cannibalism will just be the beginning. As well as beating the wifeys for crashing so many of their planes/ships.

We would still be the most dominant species because most animals that could be our predators are close to extinction and the timeline is too short for them to make a comeback in relevant numbers. Also, not all countries have access to guns and ammo as the US, but wild animals should be a lesser priority compared with food, shelter and natural disasters.
However society as we know it would collapse. The same as it would happen if all women disappeared and only men are left.
In just 5 years women would still be in the process of adapting to the new society and I doubt that anything bigger than small enclaves would emerge. While woman don't have the same mindset as men, the loss of loved ones should not be underestimated in the psyche. Just imagine a mother that has her baby disappear. Depression, loss of morale, useless search for people, the knowledge that the extinction of the species is imminent and so on would make working for anything more immediate than survival a very hard pitch to sell.
I don't particular think that the number of deaths would increase to the point of being a huge issue (outside of kids and disease) in just 5 years. Specially considering the huge number of women that work in the health field. Supplies can potentially last in those 5 years if used wisely and women could adapt before they end.
Overall, the life of woman would be harder but they could adapt and survive. But expecting a new civilization in a extinction scenario would be ridiculous, either for men or woman.

I think it's better to say that society as we know it would collapse and a new one would emerge. I say that based on a few factors.
A) Women are the drivers of a capitalist society. Basically because they are the biggest consumers compared with men. The market is dictated by women by and large, since 70-80% of the expending are made by them. Even assuming that all men are psychos that wouldn't give a shit if all women disappeared this would be enough to create a crisis.
B) Fortunately men are not psychos like some crazy abominations proclaim. Just imagine for a moment if your mother, daughter or wife disappeared: would you still be willing to go to your daily job as if nothing happened? In my personal opinion riots, murders and destruction would happen in a global scale for a few weeks. Order would be restored but I doubt that resources would be expended to keep your local McDonalds open.
C) This one is a little cruel but I think the possibility of a war (or multiple wars) would increase by a factor of 10. Not only because some crazy nut would blame the situation on arabs, chineses or russians but because war is one of the best ways to unite a group. And this without putting the religious factor into play. A war to avenge/rescue your mothers/daughters would also be a good way to redirect the economy in order to avoid a market crysis and guarantee resources to try and identify the problem. The possibility of trying to recreate women would also be on the table, but I think this would not be a factor in the first five years.
The end result, in my opinion, is a more militarist society and the collapse of the old order. Compared with the women scenario it would have more access to modern resources but would lead to a higher increase of deaths and murder. If you are from the wrong ethnicity or religion the possibility of being detained or killed would increase a lot. Assuming a larger timescale I don't doubt that women would be recreated since we basically start as women and the basic research/materials already exists to treat infertility (and the possibility of eggs and sperm frozen being lost is lower if men are the ones that remain).
Basically, the challenge would be ''can we avoid blowing ourselves up'' instead of immediate ''how can we survive until the men came back''.

Men have a biological drive to procreate which can be pretty messy to say the least. I can't imagine waking up and there's no women. My mom gone my sister. My girlfriend. I would be pretty sad and depressed. It would also be interesting to see which men were motivated by society to work to attract a mate and what men were dedicated to their work for the purpose of society. I think it's obvious men would continue to work with a large portion deciding to take to rural areas for a simpler life. Also alot of wars but small on scale for territory. I don't think nation would go to war but it's possible. Sadly women are a spoil of war so men's attention and focus would probably shift to other things that men enjoy like resources gambling fighting. Whatever vice could settle their sex drive. I it's all speculation but O think their would be more tribal war than large scale. Ww2 for example aside from power I'm sure one of the factors was murdering women and children. If the Nazi were only over their killing the men I don't think the rest of the world would mind much.
People think I created this thread to troll people but really I just thought the idea would make for a good script. One of powerful social commentary that might bring people closer together and reinforce what we already know.
The second script might be what if women disappeared and I haven't given it as much thought and the first stereotype is to go to mad max like existence but I don't think the advancement of technology would suffer. Like people said it's only 5 years so hopefully men wouldn't kill everything in that short period of time.

I think you have a more optimistic view than I do. I personally think it would be pretty easy for some to redirect the rage and depression of women missing to hate and hope. Imagine if this happened to you and you heard that ''X did it. If we defeat them and get the data we can bring them back!!'' (X being the group they hate). Motivated men can do wonders and hate is a good way to keep a group united.
I mean I was going off the fact that alot of men are celibate anyway. Either by choice or not. Trligous fanatics off course will go that way but a good portion of men are logical and science minded or atheist. But certainly all the nations of the world wouldn't be at war with each other. Its not like women dissappearing would erase rational thought. But even me I think I would be going crazy . I think their would be alot of violence towards transgender men though.
