Some brave woman needs to try this, but bring a reporter with you. The only way to get the Brethren to behave is to publicly shame them into doing it. Given enough embarrassment for the church, women will have the priesthood.

Justme I believe I have a priesthood ordination certificate somewhere so you can use mine. Just white out my name and put your name there. My cousin is the ward clerk (took over my job when I left) so he may be able to make you one as well. When they try and kick you out you can show them your certificate.
Although, passing the sacrament isn't that much fun. Especailly if you had a boner! Oh and sometimes I thought the bishop knew if I wasn't worthy because I did something I wasn't suppose to do.
The better part of the sacrament was taking it down and eating the leftover bread. One time, one of the teachers brought jam and penut butter and we made sandwhiches and tried to skip as much of sunday school as we could.
by the way I think you should put a picture up in your bathroom of a gay couple kissing.

Nothing. You would make yourself look foolish, embarrass your family and be called in for a talk. And then when you start taking about women and the priesthood and why they should have it and why you wish to pass it etc, and how the church is sexist etc, the bishop will ask you in for a formal interview with the stake president.
And at the end of the day, people in the ward will think you are crazy and finally lost it.
I intend to lay a foundation that will revolutionize the whole world. Joseph Smith We are “to feed the hungry, to clothe the naked, to provide for the widow, to dry up the tear of the orphan, to comfort the afflicted, whether in this church, or in any other, or in no church at all…” Joseph Smith

Do you think Rosa Parks should have been embarrassed for her behavior?

This is why you stand with your hands together, just below the belt. Some bishops require the deacons to stand a certain way when they wait for the bread/water to come to them. When I did this, we were asked to face the bishop with our hands in the position I mentioned until the tray came to us. We would always hold the tray with our right hand and hold the other hand behind our back like a waiter would do. Then put your two hands in front when you wait for the tray again.
Also, before the bishop ate or drank, we would all have to stand and face him. After he ate/drank, then we would begin the process of passing. At the end, we would line up and look at the priest behind the table. When he gave the nod, we would then proceed to the table to finish up.
One time I had a zipper that would not stay up so I really made good use of my hands in front as I stood next to people who's eyes were at about the right level to zero in on that location. I was mortified that the zipper wouldn't stay up. Never wore those pants again.
...more blathering...

Not if she brings the press in with her. :)

Has anyone ever tried breaking up pieces of Krispy Kreme glazed donuts and using that instead of bread? I wonder if anyone would notice?
Oooh! I discovered a trip for those pesky zippers on Pinterest!
Ok, you take a small ring (like keychain type) and put it on the zipper. Then you pull it up and loop it over your button and then put the button through the button hole.
Genius.
