I think a better thread would be (and I joked previously), "Do you understand women pastors to be biblical?" I find some hypocrisy from otherwise egalitarians on this subject, particularly in Pentecostal circles.

I know, and I have no problem with that. I get so tired of it being such a Big Deal, though, to the point that some folks even believe a woman will actually be lost for preaching the Gospel (or even testifying in church).  Really? How can anyone actually believe that? It's mind-boggling.
