Sadly not - don't you think that's a little ironic considering they believe in men and women equality? Hope that was helpful :)
Clarification: No, there were not any females Gurus. But during the period of Masand System, which was started by 3rd Sikh Gurus for the preaching of Sikhism as it was gaining growth. There were 8 women among the 24 masands who were given the authority to preach the teachings of Gurus. Please note, as for being sad for not having any female Sikh Guru, indeed it would have been great if there was one but then again succession of Guruship was not a political or social matter or economic condition. One can also say why Guru Nanak did not appoint his sons as his successor. And what is more important is that, regardless if we had female Sikh Gurus or not, if the Gurus have presented in their teachings the equality of men and women, then we should take it from there, rather wondering why were not there any female Sikh Gurus. Thank You
