Good point....I am of the generation that gave us a few dozen of our first 20th c. women rabbis, including Rabbi Sally Priesand. I once thought about training for the rabbinate, but was advised by a rabbinical student (male) that the first female rabbis would have to be very tough. It is interesting that Ava, in her generation, will not have to struggle to be accepted in what had been considered a man's world. We really do not know that much about her character.
