God-
>"There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of

>not sure which English translation this was originally from)

(in context from the Hebrew:)

vetarbeh et taznuteihah
and she multiplied her whoredoms

lizkor et yimei neureihah
remembering days (of) her youth

asher zantah beeretz mitzrayim
in which she whored in the land of Egypt

Vata'agvah al pilagsheihem*
and she lusted on their sex servants ([male]sort of like in a harem)

asher basar-hamorim besaram
whom donkey meat (was) their meat

vezirmat susim zirmatam
and horse-flow (was) their flow

It is clear what is being discussed. In this case "pilegesh" (concubine) is
clearly male because all of the gender suffixes are male, both an the word
itself, and on the objects being discussed.
