Question
I'm dating a Spanish man whose family is very religious. Since I am Swedish by birth him a protestant. We are talking about marriage but to make that possible I need to covert to catholics. To do that officious I need to find out more about it. One thing that concerns me is there view on women. Can you help me on were I can find out more information and study before making my final decision?

Answer
Camilla,
You NEED or want to convert to Catholicism?  The first thing I'd advise is to go to a local Catholic parish and speak with the priest.  They'll guide you in your formation.
What exactly about the Catholic Church concerns you on their view on women?  As a former Protestant myself, my 11 years as a Catholic has shown me that the revere women more than Protestants, starting with the Blessed Virgin Mary.
