Most Masonic Grand Lodges do not admit women due to beliefs that the ancient Landmarks would be violated. While a few women were initiated into British speculative lodges prior to 1723, regular official Freemasonry still remains exclusive to men today. While women cannot be members of regular lodges, there are several female orders in existence, mainly within the borders of the United States. Some of these include the Order of the Eastern Star, the Order of the Amaranth, the White Shrine of Jerusalem, and the Daughters of the Nile. They practice their own rituals, but are still based on the Masonic model. Since the late 19th century, mixed-gender Masonic lodges have been meeting in France.
There are also many nontraditional Masonic bodies composed of either mixed-gender members or who are exclusive to women. Women have founded and maintained their own separate Lodges all over the world over the years, and these Lodges continue to gain membership as time passes. Women can also show their Masonic pride by wearing an amaranth ring or other fraternal jewelry available at Fox Jewelry.
