Ordination of women

First woman Mariavite bishop Maria Izabela Wiłucka-Kowalska was consecrated in 1929 in Plock.
Katharine Jefferts Schori was elected in 2006 as the first female Presiding Bishop of the U.S. Episcopal Church and also the first female primate in the Anglican Communion.[1]

The ordination of women to ministerial or priestly office is an increasingly common practice among some contemporary major religious groups.[2] It remains a controversial issue in certain religious groups in which ordination[a] was traditionally reserved for men.[2][3][4][b]

In some cases, women have been permitted to be ordained, but not to hold higher positions, such as (until July 2014) that of bishop in the Church of England.[9] Where laws prohibit sex discrimination in employment, exceptions are often made for clergy (for example, in the United States) on grounds of separation of church and state.
