at the time of any cell division we say that the two or more daughter cells take birth but we never say two male cell teke birth why?

In biology it is assumed that females reproduce, also each cell that is reproduced after reproduction(Mitosis or meiosis) have the capability of reproduction that is why they are called Daughter cells as they can again reproduce

You're talking about cell division (mitosis) for cells that are not sex related at all. The new cells produced from the old are just more or less clones of the old and are just called daughter cells, but they do not have a "sex" at all. And you don't say they "take birth" either.

In biological terms, the daughter cell means the offspring of the dividing cell (may it be mitosis or meiosis), it does not refer to the sex of the cell.
The cell is not male or female, the chromosomes within the cell will indicate whether the organism will be male or female.
