As the 133 men refuse to listen to women and have rendered one half of the population silent and subservient, we communicated with them, also via smoke signals, in the hope they might open their eyes to the injustice they are upholding #conclave theguardian.com/world/2025/may…

Women's ordination will continue to be among the most pressing issues facing the new Pope. A thread with the press coverage of our director Miriam Duignan's participation in the Pink Smoke event highlighting that issue (links to articles in several languages) 1/8

womensordinationcampaign.org/press-releases… "Continuing to model male domination of women to the world as though willed by God and part of a just and ‘natural order’ is wrong. We know it. They know it. And the world knows it, too." WOW #Conclave2025

"Progressives who had high hopes that these listening sessions might lead to tangible shifts in church policy worry that the new pope will continue along a path of “a lot of talk and very little action” Wijngaards Institute for Catholic Research #Conclave2025 #PopeLeoXIV nytimes.com/2025/05/10/wor…

Thanks to Tina Beattie and BBC Radio 5 Live for the opportunity to speak about our expectations for #PopeLeoXIV - the interview captures the atmosphere in St Peter's Square as we watched white smoke signal the end of #Conclave2025

'The #Vatican identified them as a ‘security threat’. Police were instructed to remove and ban WOW members coming close to St Peter’s Square. A reminder that ordained men view women’s equality as a threat to their sense of privilege and elevated status womensordinationcampaign.org/press-releases…

'Justice will include acknowledgement that the Church’s male domination signals endorsement of women’s second class status for women all over the world whether they are Catholic or not.' #PopeLeoXIV #Conclave2025 womensordinationcampaign.org/press-releases…

Thanks to Uganda's most widely read English language newspaper for featuring our PinkSmokeProtest. When the #Vatican claims the question of women's inclusion only interests 'western feminists' - do not believe them Wijngaards Institute for Catholic Research Women's Ordination Conference WOW

Study group on women deacons will report by end June. But a few episcopal conferences have already called for women to be ordained as deacons, including the Episcopal Conference of the Amazon region, just last month. Can the current papal "No" be maintained for much longer? A 🧵

Speaking on behalf of WOW explaining how the history of women's ministry has been hidden by the #Vatican and why we were detained by police together with three UISG International Union of Superiors General nuns at the #Conclave2025 Thanks to Radio Kerry & Deirdre Walsh radiokerry.ie/podcasts/talka…

This is well worth listening to. It's an untold story about the Conclave and women in the Church. Not all Catholics were welcome in the jubilant throngs awaiting white smoke!

They brought their list of 'Papabile' women to the #Vatican but two members of Root & Branch Inclusive Synod were detained by police together with three nuns they had never met who were accused of 'colluding' with campaigners The Tablet #Conclave2025 thetablet.co.uk/blogs/papabile…

Of your charity, please think about all the women called to the priesthood but denied by Men. Not denied by God, or Jesus, or the Holy Spirit, but men.

Church leaders changed her name from Junia to Junius in the 13th century because they could not justify banning women from ministry whilst still ackowledging Junia was a woman apostle. When will the #Vatican rid itself of medieval misogyny?

It's like Where's Wally? Where are the women? Miriam Duignan

"Focusing on #Vatican appointments risks being a “smoke screen.” “How women are treated in a local parish is more important to Catholics than knowing there are a few women scattered amongst the majority of men in Rome." #OrdainWomen WOW Wijngaards Institute for Catholic Research
