That verse is not taken out of context to mean anything other than what the plain language states.
The passage - if we start reading at verse 8 - says:
Therefore I want the men everywhere to pray, lifting up holy hands without anger or disputing. 9 I also want the women to dress modestly, with decency and propriety, adorning themselves, not with elaborate hairstyles or gold or pearls or expensive clothes, 10 but with good deeds, appropriate for women who profess to worship God.
11 A woman[
a] should learn in quietness and full submission. 12 I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man;[
b] she must be quiet. 13 For Adam was formed first, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not the one deceived; it was the woman who was deceived and became a sinner. 15 But women[
c] will be saved through childbearing—if they continue in faith, love and holiness with propriety.
Paul is giving instructions on worship.
Firstly, it is unreasonable to seek to enforce one verse and not the others in the passage. Yet no one ever writes/debates about whether men hold up holy hands in prayer without anger or disputing; nor why women are given gold wedding rings in church when Paul forbids us from wearing them.
Secondly, you talk of "plain language"; strange that some translations have the word "wife" in v 11. There was clearly some dispute over which was correct.
Thirdly, Paul states that women
should be allowed to learn - they hadn't been. And yes, they should learn in silence; as everyone should, or you might miss something. This can be seen with Eve; she didn't know what God had commanded, so it was easier to trick her. Yes, she gave Adam some of the fruit, but he - who did know what God wanted - chose to eat it.
So yes, Paul might well be saying that a wife should learn in silence and with submission - not interrupting her husband, or teacher.
That is a long way from saying that God cannot call a woman to teach in his church.
1Co 12:28 And God has appointed these in the church: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, varieties of tongues.
Yes - and it would have been very simple, and clarified matters considerably, had Paul said "and the Spirit will NEVER give those gifts to a woman".
But he didn't. Neither did he say, 2 chapters later, that women must not speak in tongues or prophesy. In fact, in chapter 11 he tells women HOW to pray and prophesy - with their heads covered.
Women prophesied in the OT - Deborah gave Barak a word from the Lord, and male priests chose to consult a female prophet, Huldah, when the King wanted a word from the Lord.
