Tolkien looking down on women?
Why there were no female characters in the Fellowship? And for the whole story, I think I´ll remember four woman "heroes": Lady Galadriel, Lady Arwen, Lady Eowyn and the woman in the Houses of Healing. Why?
  Surely, they could have added some female wisdom and logic, which are beyond us men.   I can´t think of any argument with which to defend this without offending women and being a chauvinist. Then again, it´s 22.34 and I´m tired. Thoughts?
