Interesting how he latches onto the "women" part of the verse and skips over the "usurp authority" part.
If an elder must be a man, since he must be a father and a husband, then it stands to reason that those who have the authority to speak to the government and press concerning the church must be men.
It has nothing to do with women not teaching, but rather with women not having the authority to speak to the press.
