Pervasive gender exclusivity in the organic development of the church does not—indeed, it cannot—bear ripe fruit, because half of what is required for maturity is all but missing. It's tantamount to slicing the body of Christ at the waist and dividing it pound for pound. We could claim each half got their share, but the body would still be in pieces.

Assistance given to the weak makes the one who gives it strong.
