i know that girls can be "job's daughters" (i have friends who were), and wikipedia says this:
Women and Freemasonry
The position of women and Freemasonry is complex and without an easy explanation. Traditionally, only men can be made Freemasons in Regular Freemasonry. Many Grand Lodges do not admit women because they believe it would break the ancient Masonic Landmarks. However, there are many female orders associated with regular Freemasonry, such as the Order of the Eastern Star, the Order of the Amaranth, the White Shrine of Jerusalem, the Social Order of Beauceant and the Daughters of the Nile. In addition, there are many non-mainstream Masonic bodies that do admit both men and women or exclusively women.

Actually I think in general, women are excluded from the Freemasons. They have separate chapters. I don't remember what the women's chapter is called but I think the daughters are called Job's Daughters.
I know they are not satanists, but I'm afraid I'm unable to answer your second question. Definitons are a bit loose in this regard.

It is my understanding that you have to be a man to be a mason.
