It is an anthropomorphism. A human characteristic assigned to God so that humans can understand him. In a family the man is and has been the head or authority (no offense to libs) of the family. We are described as God's children and He our Father so that we can understand our relationship to Him. It has nothing to do with God having a penis, though if he wanted I'm sure he could make a big one.
