No. I don’t think that’s a possibility.

Scripture tells us that Joseph didn’t know her until after Jesus was born. The Holy Spirit in Scripture goes on to identify by name, His brothers and refers to *all His sisters*, which implies more than two.

The only requirement concerning the virginity of Mary was that she be virgin when she conceived and gave birth. Whatever happened after that, is of no consequence.

Most of this supposition by Catholicism about Mary and Joseph and pledges of virginity, sexless marriage, etc, is ONLY to bolster their wish that Mary remained virgin for her entire life, as if there were something to brag about or made her more holy or special or some other nonsense.

Having sex with your legal husband is NOT wrong, it’s NOT a sin, it doesn’t make any woman any less virtuous than she already is.

Sex is a gift to mankind for marriage. It was GOD’S idea and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with it and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with Mary having it and maybe even enjoying it.
