Actually though Niamh..
The people in the Catholic church and even the ones I attend when I go.
It is possibly surprisingly that it is the vast majority of the females who are the more strongly against female Priests.

Even my own late Mother and Grandmothers on both my parents side, were absolutely not in favour of female Priests either.
Even my female cousins and Nieces, who are Catholic too, they also would not like to see it happen.
Very few indeed would.
So it's not just a generational thing.

However yes, the Catholic church is male dominated in its ministry, absolutely.
That cannot be denied.
