Abstract
"The role of women has undergone dramatic change in western society in recent years. This change has not bypassed the church. Indeed, some of the most dramatic changes of all have occurred in the church, which until recent decades upheld virtually without exception the principle of male headship in the home and in the church. To say this principle is now beleaguered is an understatement. In some quarters, male headship has vanished; in other quarters, it is on the verge of passing from the ecclesiastical landscape. Even where it is upheld, it is on the defensive, simply by virtue of being a minority position (speaking solely in numerical terms). Those who defend male headship, even in a carefully researched and scholarly way, I can expect a certain amount of scorn from fellow scholars"
