female masters

The subject of female masters and why there appear to none to speak of has
arisen several times at our TS meetings. A brief survey of the archives
here has not thrown up any discussion on this matter so I am curious to
know what others think about the almost total absence of females from the
lineup of known masters.
One possibility put forward by Leadbeater seems to be that the great work
of women is to allow souls to incarnate and that men are given other
opportunities but not that of motherhood. This may go some way to
explaining why masters whom I take to be androgynous, so to speak, become
associated with male physical plane personalities, but are in fact neither
male or female. What do you think?
