Seems like a bit of a trick question, but let's see. Jesus is a male. Jesus is God. So God is a male.
Jesus identified His father as "Spirit" and since spirit has no physicality of its own, gender is meaningless, the Son of God remains God and is certainly male.
The classical definition of the trinity is that the godhead exists as three persons and has always been three persons, but there is little in scripture to indicate that God has a body other than that of our Lord, Jesus Christ, and though we call them three persons they remain one God.

Correction Jesus was male.

Correction: Jesus was a male, is a male, will always be a male. Before He was born He was a male. He was born a male, and He was resurrected a male. Jesus, the same, yesterday, today, and forever.

Jesus was born. Before He was born He was the WORD. WHEN he was born, that WORD became flesh. Heb 13:8 does not mean FROM the beginning of time, it means from when Jesus became the Christ.

before he was born "He was a male" Interesting but funny.

Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Joh 1:2 The same was in the beginning with God.
Joh 1:3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

He was with God, Biointeger.

Jesus was NOT with God, Jesus is God's ONLY begotten Son. The WORD Was with God and IS God. The WORD became flesh in Jesus and dwelled among us.
Let's stick with what John 1 actually says.
