You can find this essay at the Dialogue website. Just google Dialogue, Journal of Mormon Thought. Then on the Dialogue website just type in the search space Border Crossings. It should be the first thing to pop up. Alternatively, I HIGHLY recommend her book All God's Critters.... Lot's of fabulous essays like this one in it. You can find it on Amazon.

It seemed to me the point was that "arrangments of function and employment" really do matter, because we're human. I agree with you that the structure seems to impede equal worship. To be honest, I'm not sure how much longer I can stick it out. Every time I read thoughtful essays like Ulrich's the possibility of staying in the church and finding my own way to navigate it seems almost within my grasp. Unfortunately, that feeling doesn't always last very long. Eve- you’re welcome!

Her remarks on equality, function, and employment made me sit back and think a bit. I don't know if I personally have tasted equal worship in our faith. For me the very structure impedes it. But I'm very glad to hear that she can transcend that structure and experience equality. I loved this essay as well.
