Hold on for a  moment. P.I. has a point.  How many of us "loyal Catholics" don't see the ideological underpinnings of our denomination? Pope Benedict as CDF head articulated in no uncertain terms that God created women because Adam was lonely; to satisfy a need that otherwise would result in a "baneful encounter with himself". That was BEFORE the "first sin" after which God literally condemned women to serve man (...in the church and in the world). Many "good people" are unaware or reject the imputation that they are the willing servants and/or the dupes of an ideology that they would not otherwise endorse. In fact they would defy your accusation. 
P.I. is, in this instance, I think, referring to the "enabled"; you are referring to the "enablers".
The response of reasonable people of good will to the editorial is to see the difference and learn how to speak to it as appropriate.
