Clericalism is exacerbated by sexism and religious patriarchy.  It is also being used as a distraction to avoid facing the pathetic absence of women in the hierarchy of the Church.  
Clericalism is the ecclesiastical equivalent of inordinate attachment to bureaucratic roles in any system of governance.  The ordination of women will not completely eliminate clericalism, but will make it less ludicrous and less inhuman, both in church architecture and in the flesh of Christian communities -- and in the liturgy!
