We are not talking about English, we are talking about Japanese (read the question). Sei means sex, it CAN mean gender ONLY as a COMPOUND, but by itself it means sex, the R18+ type.

Who cares if English has ambiguous meaning for sex, the person asked what a character means, if you have no idea (clearly the case), then listen!
