She has helped her mother, Leto, give birth to her brother Apollo, she has won a vow of chastity for herself and her fellow nymphs, she is a huntress and a goddess of the wilderness. That's only, however, the beginning.
Martin Luther never became a monk, he became a friar. On July 2, 1505 Martin Luther was almost hit by lightning during a thunder storm and was so terrified that he made a vow to become a monk. He joined an Augustinian Friary two weeks later on July 17.
Let us consider her birth, after her mother Leto became pregnant because of Zeus (a male god) she then must help her mother while she is to give birth to Apollo (another male god) - in mythology this means she grew from babe to adolescent in less time then her mother was likely pregnant with her. After, it isn't as if either Zeus or Apollo is a stunning example of male godlike character. However, this is my personal opinion, one must also consider that Artemis was considered a companion of Athena and Persephone maiden goddesses who were virgins (or at least Persephone was until her kidnapping and marriage to Hades) it may be a case of peer pressure or a choice so that she did not have to give up maiden status answering to no male (husband or son or father, as a woman in Greece would have to do) - save perhaps Zeus - in her whims. Anyway, Artemis finally decide that men wanted to take away her independence, so she decided to have nothing to do with them.
