The Best Gods are Female

Humans have deified or anthropomorphized abstract concepts for ages.
And except for some misogynistic goat herders women have been associated
with the more noble concepts through different cultures.

Goddess of Wisdom: Athena

Goddess of Beauty and Love: Aphrodite/Venus

Concept of Liberty:

Goddess of Time, Creation, Destruction and Power: Kali

Even Death looks good when she's female:

Do you agree?
Have more examples?
Object?
Associating noble concepts to a male God is misogynistic?

Then I assume associating noble concepts to female Gods is misandrist?

Maa Durga, who took on the proud Asuras and defeated the Buffalo demon. He was like, "A woman? Defeat ME? You could never." She just laughed and laughed and cut his head off. :D

Norse goddesses I worship:
Sigyn
Hel
Angrboda.
And Loki is Loki. They are whatever gender they want to be. Female male it doesn't matter whatever is most useful.

Interesting. Hecate may be the most multifaceted goddess of all of them. Even the original sources seem to not agree. I have always understood her as an aspect of fate (as more explicitly shown in the Norse version of the triune goddess, the Norns).
Neil Gaimans depiction in "Sandman" is both funny and enlightening.

Lilith or Lilitu. Originally a demoness, elevated to Goddess by many especially on the Left Hand Path or Sinister Path. She is a goddess of storms, fertility, beauty, enlightenment. Another aspect of Lucifer.
