Yup. There'll be married priests long before the Church considers women as a continuum of the Apostles.

People need to understand that the Catholic Church considers bishops as the continuation of the Apostles. They have in their bishops an unbroken lineage going back to St Peter and his apostolic bretheren. WWJD in regards to his apostles? Well, consider who Jesus actually chose....

How can that be if they are celibate? And the Catholic Church itself wasn't established until after Peter's death and Peter was married BTW.
