Hmmm....my wife helped me put up the chairs in the cultural hall many times the past several months. And my kids helped too. Since often no grown men besides me would take on the task.
The funny thing is that, in my opinion, women form the backbone of every ward. If the women get along well, it will be well. If they don't, it will suck.
But at the same time, women don't control much of what's going on.
One thing I like about my current Bishop is that there is relatively little ego with him. I think he would be perfectly amenable to a sister coming to him and giving him frank suggestions. And he also seeks to empower the ward council. Which is really the only venue for leadership in the ward that women have.
