The Catholic Church defines “preaching” narrowly, as giving the sermon during Mass. This can be done only by a Bishop, priest, or deacon: an ordained man.
Women can be evangelists, teachers of religion, give religious lectures to the general public (live or by radio or tv), and perform all sorts of other functions.
In our sacramental theology, the priest *embodies* Christ, eternal high priest and victim in the one perfect offering of Himself ... and Jesus Christ was a MAN. A natural human man, which is not the same as a natural human woman. Therefore, it is impossible - not forbidden: IMPOSSIBLE - for a woman to be a Catholic priest.
That’s a different paradigm than what is understood in the evangelical community. Even there, the conservative ones will have men preaching in general worship services, making exceptions only where a special need is present. Paul wrote that he did not permit women to “teach” though the context seems to me to suggest he did not want the women to be bossy in the presence of their husbands. Husband and wife instructional teams e.g. Priscilla and Aquila, were fine.
