medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
In order to answer that question, you may like to start with the
latest study by Gavin D'Costa, "Sexing the Trinity: Gender, Culture
and the Divine", London, SCM, 2000.
Includes ample bibliography of relevant literature such as the study
of Middle Ages by Carolyne Walker Bynam: "Jesus as Mother" (1982).
