Is what makes you a man your biological functions what would the point of God or Angels being men if they don't reproduce.
If they are a particular gender, do they get hungry, bored, tired or sick? This question is not meant to be sarcastic or blasphemous. But why would Angels or God have a gender?

God is male because he made man in his image. Angels are also made in God's image. Angels are capable of reproduction because they fell i in love with the daughters of man and came to earth and married them and had children with them. the Bible talks about this.

The hormone testosterone makes you a male biologically. This hormone allows for the growth of facial hair, a deep voice and the function as a normal male. God and His angels have no "gender". We refer to God as "father" because Jesus referred to Him as such. God has "reproduced" by creating man and woman in His image and likeness. Angels are celestrial beings created by God to do His will and to serve Him and to carry His messages to us if needed. The only purpose of some angels is to give glory to God every second and every minute in heaven( if there is such a thing as time in heaven). To be in the infinite presence of God, there will be no more hunger, boredom, tiredness or sickness.One will have uttermost peace and happiness that will surpass all bodily desires or displeasures. I think we attribute a gender to God and His angels because they are powerful and strong--so therefore they must be male. But Iam sure in heaven that isnt the case. Hope this helps.

Patriarchal (male-centered) religions denied the sexuality of angels. European Christianity consigned the formerly divine Horae to fairyland, the EARTHLY paradise distinguished from the celestial one. Biblical angels were sons of God who
came to Earth to beget children on mortal women. Later these were called demons or fallen angels.

You're right.
Neither angels nor God need a gender (as we define gender; physically).
However personalities can be gender influenced.
Cordially,

Yes , celestials are males. I don't think anyone can question God about that, why he made them so... and why mankind are males and females.
They have their food called "manna" which was also given to the Israelites and they sleep too, see and read Abraham and Lot's story.
It is beyond us humans to ask God, "why have you made me like this?" since we are creations, his clay, and the Creator or the potter doesn't need his clay tell him what to do.

FYI
"Wisdom" has also been referred to as a "she". See Proverbs.

God is refered to as a "He" because in the verbage from the time of the bible everything was always masculine.
