Women are far more likely to go for this position just as they are vastly more likely to be kindergarten or early elementary school teachers.
2. Nope we have small groups led by both men and women. In fact I'd estimate there are more exclusively female led than exclusively male led groups (there are enough married couples ones for neither to have a majority)
3. No one does it, we do it self-serve.
4. Never heard of such a thing here. The closest would be the recent mothers group meetup.
5. Ditto
6. Well just about all our events except some parenting ones are for both genders...
7. We don't vote on things because we don't have a formal membership.
So most of those don't even apply. And churches where women are required to wear dresses? There might be a few but I'm sure at well over 90% of American churches have plenty of people of both genders wearing jeans on any given Sunday, and I've noticed if anything it's actually more likely that people will be casually dressed at evangelical churches (this is part of the reason I go to a liberal-leaning evangelical church instead of a denomination like the Episcopal Church by the way.)
