In heaven we will have a body of flesh and blood. Very interesting because angels can take on human form

Show me where female angels are mentioned anywhere in the Bible.
“The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage....dead neither marry nor are given in marriage,...marriage takes 2....male and female.

They’re no females in heaven. You don’t have a female and a male in heaven, you have angels… sons of God.

So you must give me scripture showing there will be females in heaven.

In Genesis 6 there are angels having sex with the daughters of men. These angels had sexual desires. Unless you think angels are gay in heaven.

I’m asking for you to show me female angels in heaven, not regular women on earth.

For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage; but are as the angels which are in heaven.

If you believe there will be sex in heaven, and you said marriage (sex) is between male and female, then simply show me females in heaven.

Revelation 21 and 22 emphasize what is changed at the end of time is the curse of sin, not gender. God made man and woman in His image and called them good (Genesis 1:26-27). There will be no need to change this aspect of humanity in the afterlife. Instead, sin and its impact will be removed.

Not so. Friend you are going to have to sharpen up a bit concerning this.

Gen 1:26-27
26 And God ['Elohiym] said, Let us make man ['adaam] in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
27 So God ['Elohiym] created man ['eth haa-'adaam] in his ownimage, in the image of God ['Elohiym] created he him; male and female created he them. KJV​
In other words "in the image of God created he him" (the male), but "male and female created he them" (i.e., not in the image of 'Elohiym, but that both male and female were created at the same time).
In other words, indeed man (male) was created in the image of 'Elohiym (God), but the female, while being fully human and a created human being, was not in the image of the 'Elohiym.
In other words, God created the male whom He created, in his image; but the female that He created, He did not create in his image; i.e., women do not look like the angels, nor like God, nor like Jesus, for those were all male forms, and the women are female forms. Woman was created for this age so that the Sons of God (the angels) could be born into the flesh of our world (age). Males do not have wombs. In Heaven all will be in male forms once again.​

23(As it is written in the law of the Lord, Every male that openeth the womb shall be called holy to the Lord;
...27 And he came by the Spirit into the temple: and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him after the custom of the law, [circumcision] KJV​

The heart has many desires.. For instance:
I desire to live, because if you are dead the desires of the heart are irrelevant.

I also desire a Lamborghini….

But what if I get that Lamborghini, I crash, and die? What happens when the desires of the heart negate other desires of the heart?
Hopefully, one's heart desire aligns with God's will and desire.

My heart has always had ONE desire, to be out of the singles life. To have a SEX life. It seems many Christians want to deny me that even in heaven. I wish they would cut the crap about there being something better or that GOD would remove those desires. Interesting, we will eat and drink in heaven, he doesn't remove those desires. It seems the ONLY desires they want removed are the one's for companionship and sex.

The lack of marriage and thus no sex doesn't from from any person but the bible.

The man who finds a wife finds a treasure, and he receives favor from the LORD. Proverbs 18:22

Despite all my searching for decades, have not received this blessing.

Indeed… perhaps we should focus more on thanking Him.

1 Thess 5:18
In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

I was talking about the next life. That Proverb says finding a wife means finding a treasure. Not everyone finds a wife which included the 12 disciples and countless others.

Matthew 13:55 says, "Is not this the carpenter's son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, JAMES, and Joses, and Simon, and JUDAS"? That passage also says, "as well as other apostles," but it does not name which ones. So we know that Peter, James, Jude, and other apostles were married.

Most weren't...which was the point. Not everyone finds a wife.

The majority of Christians do marry
1 Corinthians 7
6 But I speak this by permission, and not of commandment.
7 For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that.
8 I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, it is good for them if they abide even as I.

And that’s perfectly fine… But I’m sure you are aware of what the modern woman has become.
More importantly go to God about it and don’t be shy in your wantings
Isaiah 1:18
Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD:…

I have been before GOD about this many times in the past 40 years.

4 times in my adult life I can count the number of times I had a meal with a single mother and her children. The feeling of being at the table with them was amazing. I could not understand why any guy would walk away from this.
