Regarding "There are no women in heaven"
As much as I'd love for that claim to be valid, the word used in Luke 20:35-36 for "sons" is the Greek word "huioi", which can also refer to a mix of sons and daughters, which is why most translations say "children" instead of "sons".
Galatians 3:26-28 is one example of where "huioi" refers to a mix of sons and daughters:
26 You are all [huioi] of God through faith in Christ Jesus, 27 for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
