Nun

Nuns are members of a female monastic order. They traditionally wear a garment called a habit. Nuns will take vows of sexual abstinence and chastity.

The fetish world has taken the image of a nun and perverted it; the fetish nun is now as much of an icon of sexual perversion as a real nun is of sexual purity. A number of Fetish Designers have taken the theme of the nun and produced their own take on the nun's habit in latex and PVC. Fetish nuns are a common sight at clubs.
