I'll explain more in-depth when I get the chance, but in brief:

Yes, you are right. Because we are body-soul composites, and our bodies are sexed, each human person is either male or female.

Analogically, however the Church is the bride of Christ, and as members of the Church, we participate in a certain spiritual way in that bridal nature.

The Song of Songs is traditionally interpreted as both a love song of Christ to his bride, the Church, and as a love song of God to each individual soul. Read in this way, Chapter 2 contains one of the most moving passages in all of Scripture. God speaks to each of us, saying:

"Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away. O my dove, in the clefts of the rock, in the covert of the cliff, let me see your face, let me hear your voice, for your voice is sweet, and your face is comely."
