You can't deny the meaning of that word.
1. a woman set over others
2. a female guardian, protectress, patroness, caring for the affairs of others and aiding them with her resources
Oops......looks like she was in leadership!

Even in plain English there is no indicator that Phebe was nothing more than an individual who helped the apostles as assisting them for errands. You still have failed to disprove what I have written concerning women teaching and preaching to men? It's amazing that history is dormant about these great female apostles and pastors who revolutionized the first and second century.
It's also interesting how you are grasping (or should I say gasping) to build a case from nothing more than a few tid bits that are more vague than clear.

You call it grasping, but you are clearly ignoring the obvious.
That's your right.
