Females in the Fellowship - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

One reason i think that there was no female is because everyone in the fellowship had high stature or rank, And no kind would send his duaghter to a council of Elrond, but they would send thier son, why? Perhaps to prove the strength of the nation. But the fellow 'Encounterd' females on the way, and quite powerfull and mystical and cool ones, Galadriel, Eowyen, and who else? So perhaps the reason is that Tolkien that it would be best perhaps to not create a female presense in the book unless encounterd, and if encounterd it would not be forgotten.
