The Anglo-Catholics do not ordain women.

I meant Anglicans as "Church of England and ECUSA". I know there are some dioceses within ECUSA still that do not. They are under assault for it by femi-nazis. Not many (if any) out of communion with Canterbury bodies ordain women as priests. Of course, for most that was the reason they left in the first place, along with the 1979 Prayer book thing.

The non-female-ordaining parishes are organized into a couple of groups - FiF (Forward in Faith America) and APCK members don't ordain women, I'm sure there are others. The AAC has voted to put the question off to another day (typical Anglican response to any vexing issue) because they are trying to deal with the ordination of Vicki Gene and see that as more pressing. Plenty of folks who don't have a problem with lady preachers DO have a serious problem with him. Hang together or hang separately is how they're thinking, I believe.
