Not quite so, prabhu. It's not an "all or nothing" matter. There is a middle

ground, as Srila Prabhhupada's explained in his conversation with Mr. and

Mrs. Wax. Read it and be happy!

 

NB: Neither do I advocate the extreme position that "simply possessing a

woman body does automatically disqualify the person from becoming a TP or a

GBC," nor the extreme position that "if it ever happens that someone denies

to a woman becoming an authority like TP or GBC just because she is a woman"

is misogyny.

 

Hare Krsna!
