I think it's problematic to assume an N though. Perhaps there are infinite genders?
How do you describe somebody who is agender? Is that just another gender is your model?

-
Also how do you describe those with oscillating genders, e.g., bigender or gender fluid people?
-
May part of the problem be that we assume 'space' / 'features' and not for instance other notion of concepts/categories?
-
I'm wondering if gender is possibly better captured by a theory-theory of concepts (cf. http://www.iep.utm.edu/th-th-co/ ) instead of a feature space.
-
I don't mind either way to be honest how gender is defined so as we don't define gender as male and female and admixtures thereof.
-
I am quite happy with gender being a list of features with an attached label.
