Here's a strong argument against a female version of the Ponn Far: T'Pring was apparently suffering from no ill effects during "Amok Time." Since both she and Spock were telepathically bonded (presumably at the same time, thereby synching their mating cycle) that suggests that the females don't have to go through that kind of thing.

Another question is just what happened to Tuvok's wife? If Tuvok went through the Ponn Far, then if the females went through the same thing then T'Pel would be in the same boat as Tuvok... and may have chosen another mate. (Or tried the same holographic hand-job trick.)

of course, it would be ludicrous for the whole of Vulcan culture to have synchronized mating rituals.. the streets would be empty every seven years.. possibly if the husband and wife are out of sync, they simply indulge their mate, and vice versa and they get to mate twice every seven years
