Worth mentioning orthodox Judaism is NOT the original form of Judaism. Closest extant form of Judaism to what Moses and the like woulda practiced is called Karaite Judaism. Also called 'Scriptural Judaism' and doesn't use the Talmud but only the Tanach.
Reading around, seems this is purely an American policy and not a blanketd ecision for all of orthodox Judaism as women can still become rabbas in Israel (rabba being the feminine word for rabbi which is masculine.)
Why Orthodox Jews in Israel can ordain women as rabbis, but those in the Diaspora won't - Rabbis' Round Table
Dunno what crap-for-brains came up with this but there's nada in Tanach about no female rabbis. No female priests yes, but that's very different from rabbis.

Yes Sir, there are even prophetesses in the Bible, but as Rabbis, I wonder what the Orthodox Jews say is the issue with a female Rabbi, comparable to Catholicism's forbidding of female preists...

You have to be prepared to to deal with everyone knowing more than you.

Since a rabbi is just a learned member of the community and not a magician like a priest is, there is no logical reason why a woman can't be a rabbi. It bugs people, but if she can hold her own in an argument, and what woman can't, that is the qualification.
