It seems like Wikipedia has done a good job at enumerating the parameters here.... Why can't we?

And this, IIRC, is why we decided not to try to solve this seemingly 
simple problem the last time it was brought up.

However, gender [1] is a quite complex category, if we are talking
about all languages. That means that it's possible to have different
gender inflection based on categories other than [approximation of]
natural sex. For example, different inflection or syntax depending on
social class.
