Years ago I was working in a sales / support call center. One day in between calls someone posed the question of if you had to sleep with someone of the same sex who would it be. Obvuois answers were things like George Clooney Brad Pitt etc. one of our team was extremely introverted so it was normal for him not to participate.

3 weeks later he pipes up, "I've given this a lot of thought and If I had to sleep with a man it would be Jesus Christ" 3 weeks later. Blows my mind he was in deep contemplation for so long. I still am taken a bit back.

The reason? "Jesus seems like he'd be a considerate lover with strong hands." Beautiful.

IIRC, a more literal translation of his profession would have been 'home builder,' and since most homes in the area at the time would have been stone, he would have been a stonemason. Jesus would have been ripped.
