Nun
Created | Updated Apr 27, 2002
A female member of a religious order. Historically these poor women were painted red and floated on a small platform at sea for hours on end to mark the right side of a channel leading into a harbour. In modern times, however, Nunbouys as they are called, are made from plastic and metal, and the Nuns themselves are forced to find other methods by which to prove their faith. Many resort to Teaching.
