All right 22paynem, let's look at your assertions:

1. Lilith exerts a strong "influence" over monsters due to her position as Mamono Lord, however it is FAR from "complete and total control." Monsters can oppose a mamono lord, in fact the settings guides note that some past Mamono Lords died from uprising/assassination from their underlings rather than due to human heroes. But since Lilith rules with kindness and pleasure, there are no monsters that oppose her enough to actually challenge her for her position. Not to mention they know that none of them have the power to maintain their new forms if they did take over (i.e. they would revert back to being slaves of the gods).

2. On the other hand, that's not to say no monsters disagree with the Mamono Lord. KC has noted that some consider her too "mild" and think they could create a more erotic utopia. Not to mention the many monsters whose loyalty to other powerful monsters or to various gods is considered a higher priority than the Mamono Lord (Zipangu monsters, the Fallen God's followers, and so on). For such monsters they consider the Mamono Lord as very important and necessary, but they don't consider her their personal leader (though she is still an "absolute existence" to them). Some even consider their allegiance to a human leader as a highter priority.

3. Outside of monster races where it is part of their culture (i.e. devil bugs and large mice), incest is noted in the settings books to be "rare" for most monsters.

4. Monster realms are not lawless, they are simply less strict than most human societies. Even then things vary a lot depending on the nature of the particular monsters and humans in charge or who make up the majority of the population. For instance, the Land of the Four Gods in the Mist Continent is a bright green monster realm noted for its belief in balance in all things, and the monsters there often restrict sex to night time in their homes.

5. Given loyalty to their mates is of the highest priority to monsters, to the point that they can't even feel sexual pleasure from another man once they've pair bonded, calling them a "free love" society may be seen as a bit of a misnomer.
