If bhiksu use the Buddhist scriptures to be little nuns and tell them they are the cause of disaster, Sakya Chao-fei, who has debated the ethics of the relationship between male and female followers of Buddhism on TV several times, says that "Women should be modest, but not regard themselves as inferior."
相反的，若是比丘以這些經典來貶抑比丘尼，教育女眾自己就是「禍水」，幾次與比丘在媒體上辯論男女二眾倫理的昭慧法師不以為然的說：「女眾應該謙卑，但是不必要自卑吧！」
