Re: [Goanet]Re: Women priests !!!

I don't define equality as "sameness" - behaving just like a man is not 
my idea of being equal to him.  I know some women do, and they're 
entitled to their opinions, of course.  But dressing up in a suit like a 
man and carrying around a briefcase like a man and working at 
TRADITIONALLY men's jobs is not my idea of fun OR equality.  I'm secure 
enough as a woman to not have the need to define myself according to a 
male ruler. 

Sure, I'll never be Pope, but the Pope will never be Mom, either.  I 
wouldn't give up THAT title for the world.

Here are some insights into the issue sent to me by a Goan woman by private email so I have not
included her name.  I am forwarding without comment.
