How do you handle this in your churches?
Enforce it? Ignore it? Try to explain it away using the cultural argument?

I think this also applies to women "Sunday school" teachers.

Think women permitted to teach as long as not in spiritual authority, such as being in areas of a Pastor or Elders!

I agree. They are to teach only other women and kids.

That is not what the passage plainly says!

Why does the Baptist Church ignore this passage? It seems quite plain. Women are not to teach men, have authority over men, or even speak regarding teaching or administrative matters of the church.
Why is it ignored?

They can not teach men at all.

So cannot teach boys and girls in a sunday school setting?

I already said they areallowed to do that.

So they can teach sunday schools, and other women, just not mixed couples, correct? For most churches, that would mean not getting to use the pulpit!

Seems to be in line with what Paul said until your last sentence.

Thought that we agree that women are not to be allowed to teach as the pastors, from the pu;pit!

I guess they could teach a Sunday school class of all women that met in the sanctuary. Definitely can't be pastor.

I agree no woman can be called as a Pastor or Elder!
