The god Stx (today called Sutekh, Seth or Set) is neither a boy nor a girl, but is represented as a man with the head of a fabulous jackal, very unlike a real jackal and perhaps combining elements of many desert creatures.

Goddesses in Egyptian art can always be distinguished by their full-length sheath dresses; gods normally wear a type of kilt or loincloth reaching the knee, sometimes with a separate shirt.
