God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit are non-sexual. They are beyond Human nature in their spiritual state. Whatever form they are described in the Bible is a reflection of the inadequacy of our language.
That Jesus chose to be a male is simply because to relate to Humans, God's presence had to be male or female and the presence chose Male. That does not infer Male is better or superior in any way to a Female. It was a matter of necessity that a sex was chosen.
It also does not make Jesus in the presence's divine state Male or Female.
The trinity is three persons, separate and distinct at the same time as being One person. It is not logical, it is mysterious and beyond our minds. But at this point, it is the best theological explanation our little minds can work out.
