The angels are sexless, they do not reproduce. Humans were created male and female to populate the earth and to sit on thrones given by God, possibly also to replace the fallen angels. Neither is there any need for marriage in heaven among humans, or sex, because our function woud have been completed on earth

No. Angels are spirit creatures. they haven't any flesh and blood. a million Co. 15:50. No angel has ever lived on earth. After the fallen angels took on human kind, God would not enable angels to handle human kind from now on.

Here's a little known fact for you:

In the original Hebrew (which at least the Old Testament was written in), there was no word for "he" or "she." Gender was assigned by the translators.

It was just easier for them to make all the angels male, as well as God, and it stuck.

Personally, I believe that God and the angels are all sexless. I simply call God "He" because that's how it was translated, and that's how most people who share my religion know Him.

Many christians here claim them to be sexless but in fact they were almost certainly male as it is talked about twice in the bible where angels came to earth to sleep with human women.their offspring were called "nephilim".: "And it came to pass . . . That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose. . . . There were giants [nephilim] in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came into the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown." (Genesis 6:1-4)

This is obviously mythical. The "sons of God" were angels: "the expression clearly refers to divine beings." (Harper's Bible Dictionary) The word nephilim "could mean 'fallen ones' and allude to stories in related cultures of rebellious giants defeated by the gods in olden times (cf. Isa. 14:12)." (Harper's)

Some suggest this is why Paul admonished Christian women to keep their heads covered in church, so as not to sexually tempt the angels: "For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels." (I Corinthians 11:10)

There are only three angels mentioned by name in the Bible: Michael, Gabriel, and Satan.

In the English translations, these three are always referred to in the masculine.

Angels in the Bible are described as great warriors, not naked angel babies playing harps in the clouds. The only names of angels mentioned are masculine names. Michael, Gabriel, Lucifer. There is no indication that there are female angels and there is no confrimation they are all male either. That is why it is commonly believed they are either masculine or gender neutral.

the bible does not necessarily support the gender of angels being male or female. whenever gender is specifically “assigned” to an angel in scripture, it is male..however, this does not necessarily indicate that angels are male. matthew 22:30 seems to indicate that angels are “sexless,” without gender

Angels are neither women nor men they have no gender they are not like human beings or demons who have genders.

From Bible, we can note that the names given to them look manly...Gabriel, Michael..But as Jesus says in one of the gospel that they don't marry or regenerate. More than that they are glorified ones. There is no human aspects. They are divine.
