Nuns promise themselves to Christ exlusively, and are considered, in a sense, "married" to Jesus Christ. That is why they wear a gold wedding band. Married Catholic ladies don't date other people.
The nuns don't get married.It is because marry is a virgin means nun must always stay a virgin? Mary gave birth to Jesus without ever been touch by man, it's a miracle but why Mary, is it because Mary is so devoted to god so god create miracle by making Mary pregnant with no contact from man ?,
if Jesus is son of god, then why not Adam, the first human that god create, and eve the first women god create, so that makes Adam and eve the first son and daughter of god !, christian it's so confusing

Can nuns be married to more than one guy?
Nuns cannot marry at all whilst they are nuns. They can leave the convent with the permission of the Mother Superior, and therefore marry one man, but a nun would never dream of marrying more than one man. This is bigamy if she is married to two men at a time, and nuns do not believe in divorce.

Did women gain anything from the Protestant Reformation?
Well, not directly. I do not think Luther explicitly advocated women's rights. However, Luther's doctrine called that the clergy (which included nuns and sisters) be allowed to marry, which the Roman Catholic church had forbidden. So, if you want to look at it this way, nuns did get the right marry. Luther himself was married to one.
Do nuns believe in God?

How do you upgrade women in Buddhism?
I am afraid that this question makes no sense. There is no upgrading of men or women in Buddhism. Men and women are to be treated as equals. The only differentiation in Buddhism is between Lay people and Monks/Nuns. Lay people can marry, hold jobs, raise a family. Monks and Nuns dedicate their lives to reaching enlightenment and to aiding others. Therefore they do not marry or hold jobs.
