Making leadership decisions should be by spiritual discernment - including competency and effectiveness for the task. This process seems apparent in the judge Deborah - being the only woman named who was competent for the task. Forcing or favoring gender equality in every endeavor ignores the obvious and is not spiritual discernment. Believers need not comment about modern feminism for it is an issue for this world and not of the Kingdom of God. However, the Church ought to be the example for the world rather than the other way around.

And no, I'm not a feminist. That word is so plastic it can be made to mean almost anything. I'm a Christian who believes God when he says he is holy and just.
