Christ was God with us, Creator of all souls/spirit intellect. The Holy Spirit was with Him night and day and there would have been NO desire for a flesh woman. Quite unlike those fallen angels or ‘Sons of God’ referred to in Genesis 6.

Hebrews 2:14 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, He also Himself likewise took part of the same: that through death He might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;

It is a devil teaching that promotes this notion that Christ would have been tempted by women, either in marriage to one or a sexual tryst in some oak or fig grove.

Rather than go with your warm, fuzzy feelings about it, I'll stick to what Jesus had his apostles tell us...

Heb 2:9 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.

Heb_4:15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.

And that's why we can go directly to God with any and every temptation we may encounter...He has experienced it all...

Again, Christ was God with us. He was in a flesh body filled with the Holy Spirit. Now where can you quote anything that suggest that God would be 'sexually' attracted to one of His children? That is not a temptation that should be 'common' to any man.
