Gender:  [ ] Male   [ ] Female   [ ] Both   [ ] Neither   [ ] Robot   [ ] Other

In absence of specific information to the contrary, I'll usually refer
to computers and programs by masculine pronouns; no particular reason
for it, just the same sort of convention that has most ships and boats
being "she".

And you're quite right, gender and the pretense thereto are completely
optional in a Turing test, even though the Turing test was derived
from a similar concept involving gender.
