Is this accommodated in heaven? If the desire to do those things is removed from me, I am no longer me, making the whole exercise fairly pointless. It would just become a place full of smiling, vacant zombies.
Apart from people not marrying and being given in marriage like the angels. I cannot see why there would not be sex in heaven. Especially given that in Genesis 6 some angels had sex with human women.
One could imagine heaven having one never ending orgy between God, Jesus, The Holy Spirit, The Angels and the "elect".
I thought about something similar myself.
Here is my reasoning: God created sex. Sex is good. God approves of sex between a man and a woman. God tells Adam & Eve to be fruitful and multiply. Therefore, there could be a possibility of sex in Heaven.
Then I also thought. God says we will be like the angels, not married and not given in marriage. Never has it been mentioned that an angel has an offspring. If angels create children they do it without God's permission, without his approval, these are the very angels that followed Lucifer. If we Christians will become like the angels, then we will become like the messengers that never tresspassed on God's laws because they love him and trust him. It is unlikely that there will be sex in the new heaven and new earth, but we cannot be sure because the Bible says that no eye has seen and no mind has conceived all the gifts for those who love God.
That's how I thought about it. So my conclusion is I will just wait and see. I find sex enjoyable, but I would rather spend my time worshipping God.
"And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him." Hebrews 11:6
