I, uh, see nothing at all to show that Steve is indicating that 'it' is a sexual reference.
Steve's comments center on the idea that you should make yourself a eunuch the better to recieve the kingdom of heaven.

What a fascinating comment from one presum(ptuous/ablly) 'holier than them': to speak of 'getting laid' BEFORE mentioning marriage.

I actually understand the WHOLE of the bible that way. There is no way of discriminating which bits to pick and choose as literal, myth or parable, other than to use the prejudice of the reader.
