Probably because males were more dominant at the time. It's a fact!

Hello and women in that part of the world were considered property and had no rights at all and is still the case in some areas the gospel would have suffered at once had that been the case God operates within humans area of acceptance and prodigious is a hard thing to overcome. God does use women when He can and man will accept check out Acts 21:9 And the same man had four daughters, virgins, which did prophesy.

YHWH the god of Moses was from a patriarchial culture where men rule and women are slaves to them. This deity would not want an inferior daughter. In a matriarchial society, the Goddess would have a daughter as an heir or a prophet. Matriarchies were conquered by patriarchies at an early date.

According to scripture, God decided to have many many sons, all of whom exist in the heavens. God's spirit creatures in the heavens are always referred to in the male gender even though they actually have no gender at all.
God himself is always spoken of in the male gender even though he has no gender either. When the angels materialize in human form, it is always in the male gender. The first human creation was a male - a man. Jesus was born on earth as a human son of God to, among other reasons, become the last Adam. 1 Corinthians 15:45.
God has countless daughters on earth in the form of female humans. Eve was his daughter. So he has sons and daughters.
Hope this helps you out a bit.

IF you look at the bible and see the mind of God it is pretty clear that God does not intend for women to be i roles of leadership outside their homes, and with their children.
If Jesus was a woman he would have been rejected first and foremost for his gender. He was rejected as it was even being a man, but his ability to lead would have been zero in his world. He could have never sat with the religious leaders, preached the sermon on the mount, or had a triumphal entry had he been female.
Our world has totally gotten the position and role of women messed-up. Women are to honored and cared for as they care for the children in the home, make the home, and provide leadership for the home. This is done under the leadership of God and the head of the home the man/husband. This is not my idea but God's as he relates it to us, in the pages of his word, the bible.

The culture at the time was very patriarchal. It's unlikely a women in that culture would have been able to accomplish what Christ did. I'm not saying a women wouldn't be capable, but the culture wouldn't have accepted it.
Christ did treat women far better than most people in that day. It was one of the reason the religious leaders hated him.

God is only he who has created the world and the world of hereafter. He has created man and every thing of the world. He created animals not born them. God have neither son nor Daughter and He is neither son nor daughter. This is truth about God and not anything like that. He created many great men and women, and send him to this world to convey this information to every one. One thing should be understand There Is Lot Of Difference Between CREATION and Giving BIRTH. WE ALL ARE GOD'S CREATIONS NEITHER SON NOR DAUGHTER.

The angels are actually sex-less. They are neither male nor female. They are often described as male in the Bible though, just because they sometimes appeared to humans for different reasons. They always appeared as men.

It was because of a wager God made with Satan, though we do not have the details.
Also Satan told God: "If you have a daughter, I will go down and make a Son of Satan, and your daughter will be the Virgin Mother of the Son of Satan, and he shall have rhythm; whereas you and whatever son you sire are stodges. You've always been a stodge, and your son will be a stodge.
But if you have a daughter, I will dance around her, and we will surely have rhythm."

Because in ancient times, Boys were more revered. To have a son was a good thing, he could work, carry on the family name.
