Yes...here in Ireland, a family's eldest son would be made to become a priest, whether he liked it or not. As for nuns, one of the girls would have the honor, both would bring honor to the family. So you can imagine how this turns out for those who wouldn't choose the profession otherwise. It's a terrible thing and it's slavery in a way. Some of these were just completely fucked in the head, with people above them also completely fucked in the head. That's not a good place to be...
