The self-serving hypocrisy of lauding female pioneers of the Little Flock/Lord's Recovery (Peace Wang, Dora Yu, ME Barber, Ruth Lee et al), all the while denying them similar current roles, should be called out. Repeatedly, loudly, and insistently: if "women are not allowed to teach" per Paul's dictum then why base "the three parts of man" on citations of Mary E. McDonough's "God's Plan of Redemption"? And similarly Jessie Penn-Lewis and Madame Guyon? Etc Etc?

It seems clear that WL deliberately and systematically suppressed women (and Brothers We followed suit) for one reason - to eliminate half the potential rivals for power. It's a blatant power play - use them for acquisition and then toss them aside once they're no longer needed (and might pose a threat).
