None of them are considered prog by this site (I don't think) but lets hear it nonetheless for:
Joni Mitchell
Laurie Anderson
Bjork
PJ Harvey
All absolutely have elements of progressive music in their work.

Is there a woman in Henry Cow or Taal? I remeber hearing somewhere there wasa female vocalist on one of their albums.

Well, Ofur, this topic is about women in PROGRESSIVE MUSIC so Grace Slick 
belongs here. By the way, how can I forget Ars Nova, I have seen these outstanding Japanese ladies on the Dutch Pul Festival in Uden, some slightly overheated progheads were screaming 'backstage'  .... And Interpose is worth to check out  , a very promising Japanese band! |

PJ Harvey? I have to vehemently disagree on both the Proginess and the attractiveness.

Tarja (Nightwish) wasn't mentioned so far. Maybe not that progressive in comparison with others, but since they are in progarchives.com, no one can deny it.

Can you believe that there is one band from Japan playing complex prog almost as good as Il Balletto di Bronzo with decent material and they all are women? Yes, that´s true and they are ARS NOVA and they have at least two exellent LPs on Black Widow Records: The Book of Death and Android Domina with beautiful cover. If you are into that kind of stuff I strongly recommend these records! Have a interesting journey to the world of ARS NOVA.
