Ordination of woman in the Roman Catholic Church?

It's an old boys network up there in the Curia, and they see no advantage in changing it. Jesus never even mentioned "priests", and he clearly didn't subscribe to the dominant cultural bias against women. The surviving historical (and biblical) record indicates that women had a great deal of influence in the early Church. There were deaconesses and possibly even women bishops. But once it was legalized, the men took control and have never given it up since.
