    All fun and games until they all go extinct because their environment had a slight variation and they could not adapt to it because they’re all clones with the same genes

          No, you’re right. It’s mentioned in the Wikipedia article that lack of genetic diversity is a large concern for obligate parthenogenic animals

      to the lizards - they probably wouldn’t call themselves females if they could

      to humans - our definition of female is producing the large gamete so if all those lizards do that then, from our human perspective, they’re female
