Why can't you understand that on account of the practice of our Saviour, women cannot possibly receive the Sacrament of Orders because  Christ's Church has no authority from Our Lord to bestow priestly ordination upon women.
That is the argument. It is not at all whether female 'priests' would be better or worse than Catholic priests. In counselling they may well have a function but then counselling is not  necessarily a priestly charism.
If women feel that they have been downtrodden in the past then ought they not to be grateful that they are not considered so today?
