I am curious to know about this...
At the moment I am aware of two Christian denominations which definitely do ordain women: the Methodist and Christian Reformed churches.
I am curious if there's anywhere that gives a comprehensive listing of which denominations do and don't allow it...?
Personally, I am all for it, and this is why I'm interested.

Hmn... well, my parents baptised me Catholic, but I never had my first comminion, confirmation, confession.... nor did I ever participate in Lent... AND I have turned my back on this religion crap in exchange for spirituality.

I go to the uniting church... I think we can ordain women... never met a female minister though so perhaps not.
I find it ammusing that the entire precept behind my church is to be open to different interpretations of the one true god, and yet 90% of parisheners are homophobic bible-bashers.
