Elrian has just left Hobbiton.
Tolkien

More likely is the era in which it was written. Equal rights wasn't heard of then, and women did not go off to war. Not many fantasy novels that I have read have many women charaters in them, so it wasn't just Tolkien. The ones Tolkien did have were very well written and very intruiging.
