I think that when it comes to higher truths and things that belong to the realm of god,we like to personalize it and make them comfortable and familiar.i know the issue of gender regarding god/goddess in quite old and has in recent years become an important issue,especially among feminists ,neo pagans, and witches.I really think that there is no gender when it comes to the divine in actuality but only in manifestation.I think the deity/deities transcends gender and to think otherwise is naive.but it does manifests itself in definite male and female manifestations,examples of this principle are all around us.It's nice to think of a smiling male god looking down on us or a beautiful goddess with wings bestowing her gifts upon us...but i think it's all just wishful thinking on our part and that the human trait of converting things we don't understand into things we feel comfortable with and want them to be is demonstated in this whole goddess thing.
