Sort of. A Calico cat is almost always (99.9% of the time) going to be female. The reason is that the female has two X genes, one has to carry red and the other black to get the 3 color effect.

For a male to be a calico, it has to have XXY and is normally sterile.

Tortoiseshell or calico cats are usually female. One in 8,000 of these cats may be male. Ginger cats are usually male.
