God ultimately is neither masculine nor feminine, but It can manifest as either. Durga, Kali, Saraswati, and Lakshmi are the most familiar female deities. Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva, and Ganesha are the most familiar male deities.

In Christianity, God is spirit and thus is beyond gender. However, we refer to God in the male gender because He has a Father's love for His creation. As mortals, we cannot easily conceive of a spiritual existence, and understand only what we see around us. As our experience of life is linked to gender, we find it impossible to imagine God without such - and have given Him male gender.
