Roman Catholic nuns..............?

why do some Roman Catholic nuns not wear the monastic habit?

Why dint all roman catholic women wear the hi jab but go to church half naked ?

I know that the Benedictine Nuns at my church don't wear their habits. There are nuns that do wear the traditional monastic habits in the United States, but for the most part many Nuns don't wear them anymore.

they were allowed a little leeway in the 60s. much to the detriment of some orders.some new postulates that are coming through have made it known that they wish to wear the veil and the habit

I think it depends on their order and the actual nun.

We don't have nuns at my church, so I'm not sure.

Because not all nuns are monastic.

Every Order of nuns has it's own habit. Those who really know their nuns' Orders can identify the Order just by looking at the habits themselves.

Chances are, the reason you don't see to much in the way of monastic nuns' habits is because, well - they're monastic! They're at the monastery; not out in public.
