144,000 are chosen from both genders; male and female. Nowhere does it imply it’s “males only.” However, after resurrection they won’t be humans anymore, and their gender won’t play any role (not in the way that it is for humans).
Hebrews 2:11-13 “So now Jesus and THE ONES HE MAKES HOLY have the same Father. That is why Jesus is not ashamed to call them his BROTHERS AND SISTERS. For he said to God, “I will proclaim your name to my brothers and sisters. I will praise you among your assembled people.” He also said, “I will put my trust in him,” that is, “I and the children God has given me.”
- Mark 3:33–35 “Jesus replied, “Who is my mother? Who are my brothers?” Then he looked at those around him and said, “Look, these are my mother and brothers. Anyone who does God’s will is my brother and sister and mother.”
Galatians 3:26-29 “For you are all children of God through faith in Christ Jesus. And all who have been united with Christ in baptism have put on Christ, like putting on new clothes. There is NO LONGER Jew or Gentile, slave or free, MALE AND FEMALE. For you are all one in Christ Jesus. And now that you belong to Christ, you are the true children of Abraham. You are his heirs, and God’s promise to Abraham belongs to you.”
Luke 20:34-36 “Jesus replied, “Marriage is for people here on earth. But in the age to come, those worthy of being raised from the dead will neither marry nor be given in marriage. And they will never die again. In this respect they will be LIKE ANGELS. They are children of God and children of the resurrection.”
Zechariah 12:8-9 “On that day the Lord will defend the people of Jerusalem; the weakest among them will be as mighty as King David! And the royal descendants will be like God, like the angel of the Lord who goes before them! For on that day I will begin to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.”
