Genesis 1:27

Genesis 1:27 ► So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.

My question then would be, if God created us in "his" image, but created female too, he couldn't have been just a he. Wouldn't that make sense? What image did God actually have back then? It couldn't have been androgynous either because it would be neither male nor female. Maybe it's time to ask?

And in the words of my youngest daughter, when she was about five years old and I told her she looked like daddy (meaning his side of the family), she loudly declares, with tears in her eyes, "but I don't want to look like a man!"

Could that be why genders, etc., were created? We didn't want to look alike anymore? Bored with the same godlike looks? Whatever that was.
