Question

Hello Rabbi,
Among all the necessary and important articles about the judicial reform, we would be glad if the Rabbi could devote an analytical halakhic column to clarifying the law of Megillah reading by a woman nowadays.
I saw in the later halakhic authorities that they cite the Korban Netanel based on Tosafot in Sukkah 38, that a woman cannot read in public, not even for a group of women, because it is not respectful to the congregation.
Beyond the puzzlement over the claim itself,
there is seemingly a complete contradiction here to the Mishnah in Megillah: “Everyone may read the Megillah,” and the Talmud’s explanation in Arakhin: “everyone” comes to include women.
From looking into the halakhic authorities, it seems clear how, generation after generation, the permission for women to read kept retreating, until they almost denied it entirely—to the point that some say that even for herself it is preferable that she not read, based on the New Zohar.
We would be happy if the Rabbi could make order of this topic.
 
In advance, thank you
