I like to quote this:
"“I love that it is easy to touch and talk with Dhammananda,” said Khun Tip, a layperson who visits the monastery daily. “Women who have problems with their husbands or families cannot talk to male monks about these things.”"

Something that is often forgotten... I hope there will be fully accepted bhikkhunis asap all over the world. Not to optimistic though.
Get the wanting out of waiting

Let none find fault with others; let none see the omissions and commissions of others.
But let one see one's own acts, done and undone.
