After mind numbing exposure to christian doctrines as a child, I have come to the conclusion that Jesus was just a good man and people really needed someone to follow and believe in so badly, that the took away all his humanness over the years after his death. Because how can you get blind following of a mere man?!
It is probably that he did, unless this freakish fear of sex was a part of his beliefs. But, as I can only speculate, I think this issue of sex got written into the religion after he was gone.
Christians are sort of screwed up when it comes to sex. Actually not sort of screwed up - really screwed up. On the one hand it is a sacred act for bringing souls into the world but then it is depraved and no good "man" should ever partake. Just the men though, apparently women are walking sex so the most honourable thing they can do is to cover and lock themselves away. Honestly!

Jesus was thirty, I believe, when his ministry started. From his childhood until then, we know nothing of his life, except that he must have done a lot of studying the Scriptures (Old Testament), and no doubt practised a trade, traditionally carpentry.
If, and it's a point for discussion, teachers (Rabbis) were expected to marry, then it's likely that Jesus was married; it would've seemed odd if he wasn't. Or perhaps he was seen as someone who didn't follow the rules? It isn't recorded. Some people think he was married and had children (see other answers) but it's speculation.
The thing is that is doesn't matter one way or the other.
I don't think there was any homosexuality - that would have been a sin. So, married or celibate? Take your pick.
Focus on the bigger picture - the teachings and the message!

There is some evidence in the new testament, and other gospels that were rejected, that Jesus was married. This would have been acceptable to most Christians. After all Muslims are perfectly happy that their prophet was married and fathered children. But the problems arose when the Church of Rome declared the divinity of Christ. In doing so, they then had to amend some of the gospels and persecute other sects that knew Jesus had been married and fathered a child; Sarah.

Unfortunately this world (controlled by satan and his demons) will do everything to belittle the existence of God, Jesus, the Bible. And there are many so-called Christians who have fallen into this trap.
The Bible is the only true source we should follow and not what latest blockbuster movie, or documentary o TV or newspaper article says.
satan is laughing at us. he will try to do everything to get the bible viewed as outdated. Please don't fall into this trap.
If Jesus even had a sinful thought, then someone else would have had to die for us and even Jesus himself.
Read John 3:16 also Romans 8:1-17

the queation of whether jc was or wasn't married cannot be answered. the catholic church under constantine in the fourth century decided he was not married because they declared him to be divine, however, the time when jc lived was such that were he to follow judaic law, which he did and says so, would require him to be married to someone who was determined by his father and mother through arrangmemnt with another family. no evidence exists to definitively say either way. if you are thinking that the book da vinci code is factual, don't. it uses some facts, some possibilities and a whole lot of fiction to create the scenario in his book, but it is not to be taken as some new truth because it isn't. it's a good story, but it is just that, a story.

He was a very exalted Prophet; a holy Messenger with a Book. His coming to and leaving the Earth is a Divine miracle. Mary is the exalted lady among the women of the Earth. She was chaste and blessed. She was groomed since her birth by a blessed Prophet 'Zakariyya'.. the father of the Prophet John(Arabic:Yahya).

Do you believe in God,and that he sent Jesus here for a reason...it wasn't to start a family or have sex,he was sinless,so that means he didn't sin,he had to be a pure sinless spotless person,like a sacrificial lamb would have had to be....so no...no matter what people want to make him into some sex crazed ,hypocrite...he did not do any of that..he was here for a reason...and don't forget Jesus was God in human form...I think he had a little more restrains than people want to believe a human would have,but then he was not all human....so rest assured he did NOT Do any thing!!!!!!!

none was reported or all the reports were burned. why should you care if they did or not. it is not a bad thing. jesus was a man. moreover he was a jewish man and they had a duty to multiply . I am sure as a Rabbi that he had a wife and they had sex and children. it is common sense. Rabbis were and are not celibate as catholic priests now expected to be.
The story of jesus has been changed to create a special holy person in the catholic view, but he was NOT catholic.
the holy fathers figured that you cannot handel the truth so they lie. I can see why now as it apparently is something that you cannot handle. enjoy your ignorance. I hear it is bliss.

I think there was something a bit funny about Jesus.
He was forever kissing or being kissed by men and youths, and not only that, he was Jewish. He also mixed with some fairly dodgy people.

Jesus lead a totally sin free life. In order for Him to be free of sin He would have never had sex, which by the way in biblical times having sex meant you were married.
