Young monks may flirt with girls passerby

“To be away from women” is a known Buddhist discipline. But in Yunnan province, there is a minor group—Dai Group, mainly in the state of Dehong, they have a tradition different. Young monks may flirt with girls passerby. Almost each young man should go to the temple to be a monk for a certain period to nurture their personality, because the temples there can also act as a school, they can learn knowledge there and at the same time learn to be a responsible man. The monks okay not only love but also marry a girl after they finish their practice in the temple. This is one of the 18 oddities in Yunnan Province.
