These are all male connectors. I need the female side, preferrably as right-angle parts.
I don't think that you'll find them for "safety" reasons. Much like suicide extension cords that have exposed blades that can be energized, you don't want a male connector to have power where it could easily come into contact with something conductive. You only want protected female connectors exposed. I realize that's not how you are intending on using it, but just the reasoning why it's hard to find.

I'd consider either making your own female-to-female extension cables while using the male molex connectors you can easily find, or consider alternate connection methods, such as header pins or terminal blocks like posted by romels33.
