Very religious single mother with lots of money from a divorce has a daughter, sends her to a girls-only boarding school, she studies theology and joins a convent, becomes a nun - now you have a thirty-something year old woman who has never known a man on a personal conversational basis (may have seen/heard them in passing, possibly a teacher or church leader as well).
(This is most likely not the case and purely exists as a ridiculous but possible answer to your question.)
You do realize some daughters are born with asshole dads who abandon their mothers before they’re born, right? Not everyone knows their father on a personal level, some have never seen them …
The person who “has never known any men in her life” is the daughter here, not the mother…
