Completely gender neutral? Don't you have any lexical gender (like king vs.
queen), or genderised pronoun even? I'm sorry the preference is currently
confusing but you have the highest freedom in translating it.
If for instance a language happened to have a single word/linguistic
construction depending on gender, and that word happened to be something like
rabbit vs rabbitess, you could still translate the question as:

If Nemo_bis was an oryctolagus cuniculus, Nemo_bis would be
* whatever
* a rabbitess
* a rabbit

And, sure, the question is highly unlikely hence most people would select the
default "whatever". Which is the expected result.
