Most of the Puranas are dedicated to male deities, except for the Devi Purana. There it is proposed that God is a female, as the primal nurturing Person, even as the one who nurtures God when God  is proposed as a male.

Existentially when a male looks to the right and to the left, he sees females. These appear spontaneously. He has to figure how they arrived in the environment but as to their purpose, that is self-evident. They are the nurturing factor in the creation. That is an existential mystery!
