Christianity has been pandering to women for over a century, if not more. Why? Because they've been seen as the spiritual center of the family(hah!) while the father focused on the materialistic.
It's why a lot of teachings get neutered down to 'let other people abuse you while you meekly take it' or 'love thy neighbor' regardless of circumstances; because you don't want to offend women with fiery rhetoric(so scary!) or let men get ideas on how to handle things.
Going by how things are developing, they're just... ahead of the curve. Barring changes, this is how it'll all end up, eventually.

The Vatican Church will probably married lesbian priests in two years. Nice to see people are willing to bail on that bullshit.
