Jesus claimed to have earthly brothers,sisters (people who aboded in his fold and adhered to his teaching.) The family terms are given due to our language operating in a formula of familiarity. We are familiar with the idea of a Mom and Dad producing offspring. So, when we thing of God who impregnated Mother earth with his seed, the result was sons of God.
It might be an interesting metaphor for the role God has played out in the human existence. One that gives the soul, provides for our needs and has given us a model to live up to; but the person who nurtures us is our Mother the Earth.

Most people feel the evidence supports the existence of a "historical Jesus." In other words, such a person actually existed (though currently there is some dispute about this) and he was male. That being the case, many call him the "son of G-d."
A trickier question is, why do we attribute male characteristics to G-d? Some say we should not, and have tried to use terms that are neither male or female: for example, avoiding the words "he" and "lord" and "king." Personally, I think that makes sense, but the limitations of language make it difficult to always be gender-neutral.

Jesus was a prophet of God (A man approved of God).
He never said he was God
Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know: The Acts (2:22)
For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; 1 Timothy 2:5
He was a man
Son of God means Prophet of God in the bible. This word has been used for pious ppl.

That's the way Earth is. Man , womb man. God is sending the Sower who is sowing seeds. Harvest is soon over
Personal life is PERSONs Private life. You will never know what Jesus did , except if Jesus says you should know. Maybe Jesus did , maybe Jesus didn't physically associate.

The Bible was written at a time when women were second class. To suggest that God could be in a female form, would have gotten you stoned. (and not in a good way).

This is just extreme feminism. Who cares? God is God. He created nature and loves all of us.

God chose a male body to incarnate to. If otherwise He chose to incarnate to female body, then there we could have a daughter of god.
If your child has penis, will you call him your daughter?
