"Will we heal a centuries-old culture of sexual abuse?"
Centuries-old?  Has there ever been a time, has there ever been a place, where women were not demeaned, abused, belittled, assaulted?  I would love to be educated about such a culture, if one has ever existed.   How is it that in the twenty-first century we still have to send our daughters to college knowing that there is a significant chance that they will be sexually assaulted during their time there?  The "radical feminism" much maligned by some in the Church and elsewhere is just the willingness to look all these ugly truths in the face.  And yes, Sister Christine, we do thank God for strong women and good men!
