Share, I believe it would take another Vatican Council to consider the question of priesthood for women. This council will only happen if the entire church leadership perceives that women can fill the priestly duties that are needed in the parishes. If the supply of quality men who want to be priests dwindles, the church leaders will have to consider accepting women as priests.
