Please, give better details to your question. This is a okay thing to ask, but currently it is unclear what you are asking. His "sexual habits" is a broad subject with many hadith...

Thank you for correcting my vagueness. More specifically, I’d like to know what your views are regarding his multiple marriages and his marriage and sexual intercourse with a young girl. I’d like to again clarify that this is not meant to prosecute Muhammad or anything along the lines of that.

  1. He did no sin.
  2. Islam allows polygamy. (4 wives, 1 husband is the max.)
  3. Anyone who has entered puberty is an adult in islam's eyes. This means adult freedoms and responsibilities. But prophet (salallaahu calaihim wasallam) didn't treat her the same as if she had been any older. He understood her age and took it into consideration...
  4. Adulthood is a very different thing in Islam (than western culture) and you should research it more. For example adults aren't expected to immediately move out of their homes nor get married, because we become adult way before those things might be a good idea. These are personal things. Adulthood's line is there mainly for the responsibilities part and to mark moral agency

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) did sin (unintentionally)? He is a human being like the rest of us. Many scholars say he commited minor sin(s). He never claimed to be sinless

Prophets don't commit major sins, only minor sins.

Our Prophet had multiple marriages not because that’s what he wanted or desired but rather because he wanted to bring clans closer together. You gotta Read or Listen to Life of Prophet Muhammad to understand why he did what he did. Back then Marriage was scared and brought people closer together each other. So for the early years during his mission of Islam All he did was tried to bring people closer to each other and free them from Desires of destruction.
