I thought that like Lord Hanuman , Lord Shani's other friend Lord Ganesha was also a brahmachari...šŸ˜†...But it was not true...

According to the legend , he had a tough time finding a bride for himself since no girl was ready to marry him because of his elephant head and pot belly.This angered him to no extent and to vent out his frustration, he started to create problems in the marriage of other Gods. Since he was so powerful, the other gods got scared of his violent behaviour.In desperation, all the gods got together and then went to Lord Brahma with their problem. Brahma thought hard and came up with a solution.With his power, Brahma created two beautiful women named Riddhi and Siddhi and then gave them away in marriage to Ganesha. Hence, this was how Ganesha got married.From his marriage, Ganesha was blessed with two sons called Shubha and Labha. His daughter is Santoshi Maa, known as the Goddess of satisfaction.

again this is some later versions of story, created to link between the ancient and the later ages, these tactics are always seen in many of our scriptures and most of the cases the story is either exaggerated or even does not exist at all.šŸ˜•
