No, you have to be a virgin after you become a Catholic nun.

LOL... Well if you read the bible..If you sustain your self and ask for forgiveness..you are considered a virgin again..look in to talking with a priest about it..you can become a nun...only if you really want to...it in your heart that matters. I dont go to a church nor have a religon i go by .. I do believe in god.

No, not really. When you become a nun you have to take a vow of celabacy, but I don't think that applies to before you entered the order.

No you do not. Many women heed God's calling in their later years. Some nuns were even married before and had children.

A virginal nun is as rare as a giant emerald.

I do not think you have to be a virgin to become a nun. You would just have to abstain from sex after taking your vows.

Monastic life means virginity
Repenting life not mean monastic

No, you just have to practice celibacy after becoming a nun.
