But what a strange name for a blog!
If you didn’t already have so many WASPM’s I’d sign up! Jeremy or one of his ilk would be a better addition than lowly lingamixed. The name is brilliant.
But Jeremy is another WASPM. In fact he posted a few months ago on his own blog his genealogy, which goes back to mediaeval England (and in fact in the female line to a Roman emperor!), although perhaps more Norman than Anglo-Saxon. But neither Wayne nor David Lang are in fact AS, Wayne has Russian ancestry and I think David said his was German.
Maybe Wayne should invite Jeremy’s wife, who differs from WASPM on three counts, but then would Jeremy let her express her own opinion?
hmmm, I’m pretty sure a woman’s place is where God’s puts her…
Maybe most women are too involved in ministry to have time to sit around typing about it.
Hey guys:
Maybe you already thought of this, but if you’re going to be focusing on women in leadership and women teaching and preaching, et al, I think it might be good if you had someone whose first name wasn’t Peter, Wayne or David writing alongside you.
Just an idea, boys.

Indeed, mga318, “a woman’s place is where God’s puts her”. And if that place is in the pulpit for a particular woman, why are men (and sometimes other women) trying to stop her taking it?
Megan, the complegalitarian team is working on this.
I read Megan’s comment as an uplifted hand.
We rarely say “A man’s place”, maybe we shouldn’t say “A woman’s place” either. God will reveal to each of us where our place is and we shouldn’t have to use gender descriptions to describe it. A former female associate pastor at our church was able to keep my attention from the pulpit better than any man that ever stood there, until our current interim pastor.
Megan, if your hand really is uplifted, I suggest you take up Wayne’s suggestion and offer him material for posting.
