Gendered languages can also have a neutral gender. For example, in German masculine/feminine/neutral 'the' is: der/die/das

But yeah, as others said, these don't have much to do with the gender identity. For example:

  • the person → die Person (feminine)
  • the girl → das Mädchen (~~objectifying women~~ neutral)
