The Catholic Church does not allow men to be nuns, either. What does Carter think about that?

Does Jimmy actually think about anything?

The Church doesn't allow men to be sisters (nuns are a particular category of sisters) ... Men who enter into religious life but are not ordained are called "brothers".

I suppose that's all very discriminatory ... after all, some benighted soul might insist that (Y-chromosome to the contrary notwithstanding) he wants to be a "sister".

I can see that happening.

I never knew that. Thanks.
