Our "teaching authority", from Popes, Magisterium, Curia, hierarchy and clergy have commanded us to be "counter cultural".  Yet, we have totally bought into the most long-standing, widest, CULTURAL perversion: the abuse of women as sexual, social, religious, political tools for men.
Actually it is far worse, our Church is one of the most populous and authoritarian institutions that  rationalize the exclusion and diminution as doctrine and implements that diminution-exclusion in practice.
