Maybe it's the fact that she (he/it/whatever Capcom feels like calling it today) is pink, with pretty fins everywhere. Or maybe her roars, that sound kinda femenine (to me anyways). Or maybe even her fighting style, that looks like a dance. Or that Capcom literally said she was supposed to be the female of the E4.

I'm with @Nat573 on this one, Tama will remain female to me.
