Kung Peng-cheng, President of Fo Kuang University, says, "There are more fe male Buddhists than male so naturally the pool from which potential nuns are drawn is larger than the pool from which monks are drawn. It's just that Buddhism generally rejects women. Not only are they subject to more rules as an ascetic, the regulations concerning their return to secular life are stricter than those for men."
佛光大學校長龔鵬程分析：「佛教的女性信徒遠本就高於男性，潛在的出家人數自然也高於男性，只是佛教排斥女性，不僅所受規矩繁多，出家還俗的戒律也比男性更嚴。」
