That is, if leadership amounts to getting the greatest number of followers, then among the bonobos, a female almost always exerts the strongest and most effective leadership.

 Direction: The Elusive Biblical Model of Leadership
As leadership structures in the church came to mirror those of the state, and as claims to authority raised the clergy to exalted positions within the community, the distance between clergy and laity widened and the role of the laity was diminished.
