One of the 1994 cohort of female priests writes of her disappointment that women are not fully accepted in the Church of England and still face discrimination.

Christine Polhill reflects on 40 years in ministry, marking 30 years as a priest in the Church of England. While the Church appears progressive, with women in senior roles, she argues that deep inequalities persist. After the 1992 vote to ordain women, opposition remained, and discriminatory practices were introduced, such as bishops being labeled "tainted" for ordaining women. Polhill is frustrated that the Church still ordains men who reject women as priests and calls for an end to this institutionalized sexism. She hopes for a future where women and men can work as equal partners in ministry.
