Did you ever notice (as I have), that the Orders of nuns that maintain the traditional habits such as this have a very good percentage of members who are young, as well as middle aged....and that they have a good total of novices, whereas the nuns who have adopted the ugly short, modified grey, black or blue skirt type "habits" with little veils, or also the lay clothes nuns ALL look anywhere in their 70's to 80's with zero younger, and no vocations. It's obvious what attracts vocations (good nuns like this), and what doesn't (the whinning pro-women priest USA nuns etc.)
