Martin Luther wanted clergy to marry because he thought that it was not disrespecting god to marry, and since he fell in love with Katharina von Bora, he wanted to marry her, but it was unacceptable to marry in the Catholic Church. When he formed Lutheranism, he made it ok for clergy to marry.

What did Martin Luther's followers call themselves?

Martin Luther was the leader of the Christian Reformation, that is he started the rebellion against the Roman Catholic church because of what the chatholic church was doing to the people, selling pentances and so forth making them think that the more money they gave for forgiviness of a sin that God would surley forgive them of that sin and they would go to heaven and it would keep them out of hell. The people at that time started calling them selves Lutherans that followed new beliefs of Martin Luther and Martin Luther did not want that but he could not change the people so that is where the Lutheran got their name and where the church got started. Martin Luther aso and formost found in the study of the word that God saves you through his word and that all you have to do is ask God to save you and come into your heart to go to Heaven. This is the biggest difference between the Catholic and the Prodestants today and that is what the Reformation is all about. That is where the name Prodestant came from the word Protest. Martin Luther protested against the Catholic church when he placed his Theses on the door at Worms.

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.
