Women, Priesthood, New Woman, Social Construct

Abstract As the name itself suggests, the purpose of this paper would be to analyze women and priesthood through the lens of ‘new woman’. ‘New woman’ was initially applied to women seeking radical change. Change in social roles and particularly independent career choices of women were the main objectives of these women. Women were often not allowed to take up priesthood as their profession as this was considered to be primarily a male dominated sphere. However, with time, apart from taking other jobs, women have also started taking priesthood as their profession. This has not only enabled women to widen their occupational choices but have also enabled them to break certain age-old stereotypes related to social constructs. This paper would also focus on some of the recent developments in the field of women priesthood and how it has laid a profound impact on our society.
