I wouldn't exclude females because the word prince is male, we don't know
what JKR is up to. If anyone has read Patricia Wrede's Dragon series they'll
remember that the dragons had a King regardless of whether the King was male
or female. JKR might very well decide to do something similar, make Prince a
gender-neutral title. I'm not saying she will, just that she might.
