Great post! I come from a background of feminism so it would be much easier for me in a way to just conform to the world and believe women can teach but I just don't see it in the text. I love the way you put an alternative verse about Diana - as it just goes to show how it doesn't make sense when they try to use all this cultural stuff to explain away verses. I also sometimes think of people who have a bible but don't have access to the historical background knowledge like a theologian does. They just have the plain reading and maybe sometimes that's enough.
