Wolf: I meant lucky in the sense that they’re considered holier than others (and due to their state of holiness they cannot marry a gerusha.)
CM: I know, it’s halacha. But some people don’t like some halachas, so the scream taliban and the like. Nevertheless, it is true that being a gerusha is considered a mum (defect) in a certain sense, which is why Jewish Law prohibits a Kohen from marrying her. Even being an almana, which is less of a mum than a gerusha as a regular Kohen can marry her, is still considered a bit of mum, as we see that Halacha precludes a Kohen Godol from marrying one.
