Women's Questions to the Church

The book "Women's Questions to the Church" is primarily answers to pressing questions. Father Andrew helps distinguish the answers given by the Church from those that are too similar to assumptions. In the first case, he interestingly and sometimes quite... unusually explains why the Church insists on something and warns against something else. In the second case, the author restrains both church and non-church people from mutual claims against each other. So, why is there no female priesthood in Orthodoxy? Has the status of women in the Church changed in the third millennium?
