This essay proposes a new conceptual approach to authorship and gender ideology in the Pauline corpus through the neologism 'androprimacy'. I maintain that in addition to the scholarly literature that has engaged questions of authorship in the Pauline corpus and its relevance for the ordination of women, approaching this topic from the angle of 'androprimacy' exposes a distinct structure of sex-based discrimination that Paul rejects (1 Cor 11.11-16) and that the author of 1 Tim (1 Tim 2.11-15) affirms, demonstrating that androprimacy was a contested ideology in the first century, a relevant finding for promoting women's ordination
