Oh, come on, Pandora!  If people were invited to speak at prayer breakfasts---they usually are public speakers.  Often Sisters coming in to speak ABOUT life at the Missions, are from other countries, native to those countries, who are speaking.  And they do everything that you attribute to priests from other countries.  Don't be so fast to always shoot down women.
They do more to support parish life and the people in the parishes than you can imagine.
