The female blossoms bear the fruit (they look like tiny cucumbers).
The male blossoms are just flowers with no fruit to show. Of
course, you could call the fruit bearer the male if so desired.

I know nothing about eating the male blossoms. Omni will have
to provide more details.

Stuffed squash blossoms!
Pull the flower, remove the center stamens, stuff with a spiced rice and
meat mixture, tie the petals shut at the tips.

Steam,fry or bake.

Very good!

Lots of recipes on google:
