Priestess...

  If someone might bother why the Catholic Church does not allow ordination of women or even consecration of woman Bishops. It is simple because Church followed the teachings of Christ which handed by the Apostles. Priest and the Apostles are Alter Christus (Other Christ) so it must be male to confer a Holy Sacrifice of the Mass at the Altar. Even the priest of the Old Testament from Melchizedek, to Aron, to Zachariah, to Jesus Christ and lastly to his Apostles which are handed down to our current Priests and Bishops (Apostolic Succession) all are male.

St. John Paul II declared in his letter Ordinatio Sacerdotalis: "Wherefore, in order that all doubt may be removed regarding a matter of great importance…I declare that the Church has no authority whatsoever to confer priestly ordination on women and that this judgment is to be definitively held by all the Church's faithful."

The Church has no authority to confer ordination to women, simply because the Church is obedient to Christ.

It is not all about oppressing women but it is all about proper roles and distinct vocation inside the Church. As God comanded Women to be helpers of Men, just like Eve being a helper to Adam (Gen. 3:16). Women are indeed helpers of Men in terms of Pastoral work and prayer. Just like Nuns who helps the Priest in Pastoral works and Prayers.

The disadvantage of Women in leading the flock is that they are not strong enough to do these kind of duties. There are many things might hindered them by holding a Ministry as what describe on  ( 1 Tim 2:13-14 and 1 Peter 3:7) being weak they are easily get fooled and deceived by the devil just like Eve whose been deceived to ate the forbidden fruit and sinned which lead to fall and astray. Its not about oppressing them but the Church simply protects their dignity and identity that might Satan exploit. Protection from embarrassment that when Satan attacks them in the moment they hold a ministry that can affect the souls of their flocks. The Church just secure its masculinity to hold and protect its doctrines and unbroken Apostolic traditions.

So far it is very awkward to think that a "Man who wanted to be a Nun."  So far I didn't heard of that..

One thing I almost forgot.. Only Pagans who allows a priestess on their Altars..
