In this Matsu procession, however, the responsibilities were taken by females. The deputy manager of Tien Hou Temple, Hsiang Mao-sung, explains: "Firstly, this was because Matsu and Kuanyin are both goddesses, so it should be reasonable for women to take this responsibility. Secondly, housewives have a lot of time."
這次媽祖繞境，禮生卻由婦女擔任，天后宮管理委員會副主任委員項茂松表示，「一來是媽祖及觀音都是女神，由女性擔任應該合理，二來也是歐巴桑的時間卡自由啦！」
