I think its because they consider sex within marriage dirty, certainly not Godly and Mary would never do that.What's been suggested most is that Mary we perpetually a virgin because she was sinless, thus implying that her having sex with her husband would have been a sin.
At least every time I've tried to find out why, the response is always that; that she was sinless.
It fits right in with what you suggested there.

Exactly. She was sinless and in order to keep her that way they claim she didn't have any other children.
That certainly goes against their own teaching of The Holy Sacrament of Marriage. Wonder if they tell those about to be married - 'now, you do know you are entering into sin' but we call it holy, nonetheless.
Deception breeds deception. One lie to cover the other lie, etc.
