I would expect that proportionally we would see more priesthood holders speak.
I wouldn’t expect the number of men vs. women speaking to be proportional to any factors
outside of the priesthood leadership.
Why would you expect that?
The church is organized with men in priesthood leadership positions. They have a particular stewardship in the administration of the church. One of those responsibilities is to see that the Lord’s house is set in order and that His word is taught across the world.
Conference provides the opportunity for this to happen.
As I mentioned earlier, it is a good thing that we have gradually seen an uptick in various nationalities and ethnic groups, along with women, preach the word of the Lord over the pulpit at conference.
That should make you happy/hopeful rather than critical, in my opinion. But alas, I don’t really expect any good things that come about in the church to have any impact or effect on your dissatisfaction with the church and its leaders.
