Craig,
As far as the sexual element goes, this is found in Revelation 2:20 where we see one woman (Jezebel) who is teaching (to teach) and leading (mislead, deceive, cause to wander) God’s bond-servants (plural).
Revelation 2:20 (NASB95)
20 ‘But I have this against you, that you tolerate the woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess, and she teaches and leads My bond-servants astray so that they commit acts of immorality and eat things sacrificed to idols.
I would think that if God wanted us to know that the woman of 1 Timothy 2:12 was leading astray men, I would think that it would be plural rather than singular. While it may be “one man at a time” (as any sexual act usually is) it still would qualify as leading “men” astray.
