At the time women ran the gnostic churches and some of Paul's writing was trying really hard to differentiate Christianity from way more popular religion in Greece. From my theology/religious studies courses back in the 90's I thought that there was evidence that women were running in home Christian congregations despite Roman suppression though and Paul was all in a tizzy trying to keep his new religion from being absorbed.
Not apologizing for Paul, he was being an ass.
