Clown fish are born genderless. if the head female dies, one of the other fish change to a female. once it is a female, it can't go back to a male or genderless. the process is this: genderless---> male ---> female. It can't reverse.

Are clownfish friendly?

It all depends on the clownfish. If you were to add a third clownfish to a tank which already has two clownfish in it, then the original two won't be so friendly.Maroon clownfish(Amphiprion Melanopus) seem to be the most aggressive type of clownfish you can come across.Any clownfish can be friendly, and any clownfish can be friendly. It all depends on the personality of the specimen at hand.I personally have 7 clownfish in my aquariums. Two are very shy and skittish(Ocellaris clownfish---"Nemo"). Two are very friendly and will actually come up to the surface of the water and poke their heads out of the water when you come to feed them, and they'll eat out of your hand(Black ocellaris clownfish---"Black Nemo"). I have to baby maroon clowns that are not aggressive, but are too young to be aggressive. I also have a cinnamon clown that is very aggressive and one of my least favorite fish.
