Thinking about it a little bit, I can see where Christians have a sexual problem with Jesus. They can't have him having sex with fourteen year old girls, like Mohamed, he just wasn't that sort of guy -- he didn't live off brigandage and kill anyone in his way.
Still, they have to admit (as it is part of the Trinity) that he was man -- he became human -- otherwise the sacrifice magic to lift the curse doesn't work. So he had a penis and one has to assume he was sexual (otherwise he wasn't fully a man).
Nowadays a guy who knows few women and hangs around with a bunch of other guys, and even goes so far as to refer to one of them as "beloved" is just assumed to be gay, but of course Christians have to deny that (why, exactly?-- well I guess just part of the prejudices of the time). So he was non-sexual -- celibate -- and priests and nuns follow that lead, although he never made any utterance commanding it.
Did he fantasize, or masturbate, or maybe even have secret sex with local prostitutes, which would explain his tolerance in spite of the spirit of the times. Of course he was tolerant in general. Too bad about the subsequent history of his movement.
