Re: It works both ways

What cracks me up about those people is the one that they leave out: Shaddai. Yeah, ok, it takes male pronouns, but it is a name of G-d that literally means "breasts".

I don't spend a lot of time thinking about it, but whenever I do, that particular one always appeals to me because it demonstrates quite explicitly that there is no hard and fast line separating masculinity and feminine-associated attributes such as nurturing.
