Burmese nuns are a part of Burmese public life. Although not as numerous as monks, nuns cannot be missed with their distinct pinkish-red robes and straw hats.
While Burmese monks quite often approach foreigners in search of "donations" to make their monk-life a little easier, Burmese nuns would never do this. As a consequence, they lead a more austere life, and indeed, appear to be more serious when seen in the streets of Myanmar. With their shaven heads, they sometimes look very un-feminine, but I also saw nuns who laughed at me. Sometimes, nuns even seem naughty girlsl; one male foreigner said that he was touched in his private parts by nuns who happened to be there when he accidentally fell down. It only makes them more human, and in general, Burmese nuns are another inevitable part of Burmese life, and a photogenic one, at that.
