There's some good evidence that he used to, yes. Her name is Asherah.
Asherah-poles are mentioned in the Bible as objects which played an important role in rites which were later banned by Yahweh. I guess he divorced his wife.

In the bible it is referring to women in the congregation or at that level. Women as a rule pay more attention to teachings than most men do, so to teach others on an individual basis is the role that is best suited for women. I know many women that have more knowledge of scriptural things than I do, and many times I listen to them or their comments. From God's standpoint Women are assigned a position in the family and the congregation, they are a blessing to both.
God's universal heavenly organization is his symbolic wife.
To learn more about that requires study. All men and women who seek spiritual things in life know before you eat meat, you drink milk. Or learn the basics of God's word.

Even in the bible god isn't suited.Believers choose to flow on and on approximately how God is suited in each and every way and how the bible is real, yet that should recommend the two the bible is a lie or god is imperfect in many,many tactics.that's only the 1st ingredient god did no longer assume, and the others carried some terrible outcomes for people, in accordance to those memories.

There are no separate God of all religions. There is only one God who created Heaven and earth, all Prophets and all humans, Heaven and hell and every thing between Heavens and earth. Young lady you better undertand before you die. And you don't know for sure when you or ay one will die. So get into your senses and study all relgions and figure out which is the best and following that you can save yourself.
No one will save us but our good deeds in this life. This is what all Prophets taught. And they all worshipped the same God whom they referred to as their Father and Lord, and God and Allah. And if you stubbornly rejecting the idea of looking into a religion for your guidance no one else may warn you again.
May God help you.

Actually, evidence shows that Paul didn't write those words about women being silent. He actually praised women for being teachers, ministers, apostles. Someone came by a couple of generations later and put his name to the Pastoral Epistles.
Some traditions stated that Sophia was the female counterpart to YHVH. The Gnostics actually believed the YHVH was the offspring of Sophia and came to believe that He was the only God. They felt that Jesus arrived as a representative of the True God to free us (the sparks of Sophia that YVHV had used to create humankind) from this world.
Genesis 1 seems to speak of Elohim (Gods plural, male and female) creating humankind together as equals. There is plenty of evidence in archaeological digs to show the early Hebrews honored Male and Female in their homes. As some said above, this would have been Asherah, whose name is repeated in similar form in many other ancient religions of the region.
It was the later Yahwists who trurned the Hebrews to monotheism and undermined the Feminine.
As far as passion for men? Sometimes it amazes me but I'm not complaining!

The Bible, as it was originally written, is so open for interpretation, we may never know what God truly intended to have in there. It was written, as far as can be ascertained, by men. It was translated and been interpreted solely (until this past century) by men. There is some reason to believe that many of the passages of the Bible have been skewed somewhat in translation.

The Christian God does not have a female companion of some sort. The Christian God is three persons of one substance in perfect fellowship with one another.

Actually, Judaism, the religion Christianity stemmed off of, used to have a bi-theistic pair of gods. They believed in the god Adonai and a goddess named Asherah shown as his wife who was a protector of women and their fertility. However, women's place in society steadily declined and the Hebrews became more of a patriarchal culture. With this, the worship in Asherah also declined and eventually reached the point where belief in her was entirely discontinued. The religious beliefs reflect the culture.

What greater love you want then this:
"Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;"Ephesians 5:25 (King James Version)
And there is a verse in the Bible that explains that God has a feminine side. But I won't tell you where, search all the Bible and you'll get it. I bet you find this shocking.

not the way you mean.
god created men and from men he created in my opinion, the neatest work of creation, woman.
while God does not have a mate as it were, the act of sex was given to bond men and women as one, as God himself is one, a shadow of greater things for us. By one, that means one flesh, one purpose
the one thing that atheists here have missed and not made fun of, is that all great works in the bible start not with man, but with woman. there are no exceptions.
so while men might seem to be more esteemed, women are not forgotten, but men will pay for the treasonous acts against them, for into man's hands for protection, love and care, woman was given. men will pay a price for their acts.
