Yoshiko Aoi has just started her career as an "ethologist" to study animal behavior. "Men=male" are born unfaithful. Through her studies, Yoshiko has come to the conclusion that it's not the male's fault. They can't help it. They are simply slaves to their genes. This is a sad, but commonly accepted theory of biology. What's even sadder is that Yoshiko's nickname is "Gene," because her name written in Chinese characters can also be read as "Gene-ko." Every week we share her struggles with work and love.

The habits of ladybugs, butterflies, praying mantises, peacocks, guppies, owls, and other creatures are introduced and give depth to the drama.
