Ca: of course it is. We say ani Mamin shezos Hatorah lo sehei mochlefes…

Now did our Rabbis allow certain things under duress, (example kitniyos during famine–which is not min Hatorah but was enforced by Ashkenazim) yes. But these guys are coming from a non Jewish standpoint, trying to change the Torah to suit their liberal values. And not because there’s this pressing need, just change for the sake of becoming like the secular liberals, and perhaps satisfy a few hard core feminists.

Most frum women are understanding and happy with their roles in Yiddishkeit, and of those that aren’t it’s mostly because they’ve been exposed to non-Jewish influences. That’s not shas hadchak. Shabbos for example may be harder to keep than women not being Rabbis, but we preserve it.
