However, the centralizing model of this institution has used of strategies that seek to maintain the hegemony of the Christianity's male-domination. Starting from John Paul II letter, ORDINATIO SACERDOTALIS, on the exclusiveness men's priesthood , and feminist's positions of the Latin-American t theology, I intend to signal some articulations between the individual and the collective in the Catholic woman's identity and some obstacles that they face for to enjoy your citizenship inside of the Catholicism.
