Correct... the built-in concept of gender is actually a "CAN" flag:

[DEFNAME can_flags]
// monster "can" type flags.
mt_male 00000
mt_nonmover 00000
mt_ghost 00001 // Moves through doors
mt_swim 00002 // Moves on water
mt_walk 00004 // Can walk on land
mt_passwalls 00008 // Walk through walls
mt_fly 00010
mt_fire_immune 00020
mt_indoors 00040 // Can go under roof
mt_hover 00080 // Hovers (can follow gargoyle flight paths)
mt_equip 00100
mt_usehands 00200
mt_mount 00400 // can ride mountables
mt_female 00800
mt_nonhum 01000 // Body type for combat messages
mt_run 02000
mt_nodclicklos 04000 // when dclicking sth., ignore LOS checks
mt_nodclickdist 08000 // when dclicking sth., ignore distance checks

Notice that "male" is a flag of zero (which everything has)... so technically all monsters are male, including the females lol.
