Hear me out:
If 1) We accept a presumption of existence for an omnipotent God that predates the known universe, and 2) We accept the presumption of 'qualia' (ie. subjective experience as part of 'consciousness') as being phenomenologically real (even as not-yet fully understood concept), and 3) We accept that the experience of sex (rather than the knowledge of sex) is a form of qualia, and 4) That 'informed consent' is a necessary component that makes the experience of sex possible, then...
What would happen if an omnipotent God (which is the only existent entity) who knows everything there is to know about sex BUT has never experienced sex before, wanted to have sex?
Is there a way, if you accept my pre-conditions as valid, that you can answer this question in any other way than: God would have to create the conditions for new, intelligent life that is capable of understanding what sex is and then also have capacity to consent to sex. God would not be able to interfere with that development, less God risk compromising the organic formation of consent. Just as it doesn't feel like 'sex' when humans create sex dolls/robots, God would not be able to create a new form of life that then consents, because is that new life truly consenting or is it merely following what it was 'designed' to do?
Conclusion: There is a non-zero chance that existence is the result of an omnipotent God that wants to have sex, and there is no other conceivable way for God to experience sex as-defined here without creating a new universe in which new, independent life gets to organically form, survive, and then subsequently evolve into having sex and the conscious and intellectual capacity to consent. God may be trying to get laid.
I await your thoughts, PaRD.
You cannot have freewill and a God who controls your destiny.
All sex with god would be rape.
