Mother or Father ?
Many Who Think Thus wise Think of the Universe or Existence Through the Human Eye. Laozi Did not See the World as Such; Defining the Dao as the Mother For the Sake of the Myriads that Can Conceive and Give Birth, Before Which; Nothing Nothing Existed; That meaning, It Simply Hasn't Received it's Rating in The Sense of Blooming beyond the Eastern Hemisphere in it's Sociability. Being not So Widely Spread as Christianity, Taoism is still Kept in it's Purer Form then Christianity; By Ever Wimp and Mis-translation that the World of $$$Cash money and the Folly of Men Provide.
So it is Regarded a Beauty, For Which Laozi Complimented the Dao as the Mother of All Things. Regardless of How Christianity Views the Father, Christiandom has Long Butchered the Father Figure into the Extends For Which a Mother Figure Must Come in Question to a Youngling. This is the Parenting that Christiandom has brought the World into For Which i'm Glad Taoism has not been Dragged Through the Gutter as Much as Christiandom. But Even in the Trinity, their is a Mother Figure. If not even Mary, the Mother of Yeshua and Chavah (Eve) is Praised as the Mother of the Living and the Blessed; Giving them Prominence that they are Well Deserved. Perchance this is the Wrong Conclusion of Religion, When a Female is Less Valued then a Male; Tho Myself being a Male, but understanding, that a Life without a Female Mother in Perspective is no Biblical Living in itself. Hence to them who Regard; dis and Reregard. Lest you become a Chau v.n.st.c p**c*: No Pun intended.
"¡" Admonishions to them Who Understand.

As far as I know, your inner-self is androgynous.

I’ve come to the conclusion that it is mother and father, without the ‘and’ even being there, so motherfather.
Which makes me a dualist

You are correct and it is beyond description.
Just common terms to help people understand.
The Mother is often in reference to energy, the creation aspect.. just like the Mother gives birth and life.
When you realize the two are one you realize the light or emptiness.
22. Jesus saw some babies nursing. He said to his disciples, "These nursing babies are like those who enter the (Father's) kingdom." They said to him, "Then shall we enter the (Father's) kingdom as babies?" Jesus said to them, "When you make the two into one, and when you make the inner like the outer and the outer like the inner, and the upper like the lower, and when you make male and female into a single one, so that the male will not be male nor the female be female, when you make eyes in place of an eye, a hand in place of a hand, a foot in place of a foot, an image in place of an image, then you will enter [the kingdom]."
114. Simon Peter said to them, "Make Mary leave us, for females don't deserve life." Jesus said, "Look, I will guide her to make her male, so that she too may become a living spirit resembling you males. For every female who makes herself male will enter the kingdom of Heaven.

Both cited scriptures are from the Gospel of Thomas which was never canonized.

I don't care that the church approved it or not. Maybe they didn't because it does go against what they teach.

Thank God it wasn't Canonized, they'd have twisted it inside out and back to front, it's perfect the way it is
