Sister Berneice Loch, who testified before the Royal Commission yesterday (I think) spoke of a "highly genderised, highly clericalised" church.
 
"I think the Catholic Church has a problem, in that almost all power in the Catholic Church is highly clerical and highly genderised. I think those two factors need to shift if the culture of the Church is going to shift with regard to the attitude that any person can have dominance over any other person. And I'd say that's all closely related to the model of Church, and I would dearly love to see our Church go back   to Vatican II, pick it up, read it and have a look at the model of Church. I know that has been said by other people, but I think it's really quite key. The way we think affects the way we act. If we are working out of a hierarchical model of Church, which is highly genderised, highly clericalised, we will not shift without shifting the model. I'm not sure I can say much more about that. Thanks."

Some people do see the problem.
