God with us had no need of a flesh physical woman. This would be very much akin to incest. He show us who and what is the greatest temptation. And even after fasting for 40 days and 40 nights, Christ was not tempted.

Bible doesn't say that...In fact, God tell us that:

Heb_4:15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.

Jesus was sinless by choice, not by birth...

Christ was God with us, Creator of all souls/spirit intellect. The Holy Spirit was with Him night and day and there would have been NO desire for a flesh woman. Quite unlike those fallen angels or ‘Sons of God’ referred to in Genesis 6.

Hebrews 2:14 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, He also Himself likewise took part of the same: that through death He might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;

It is a devil teaching that promotes this notion that Christ would have been tempted by women, either in marriage to one or a sexual tryst in some oak or fig grove.
