As with ports, the gender of a connector is determined by whether or not it has pins. For example, a D-sub connector is male if it has pins (i.e. a VGA connector), whereas a serial connector is female (a serial port on the motherboard is male [it has pins to receive the connector], and the connector has the holes in which the pins are inserted).
There is a reason they refer to the meeting of male and female plugs "mating"! Don't think of it as what's being plugged in and what's receiving the plug, but rather whether or not the connector and ports have pins or holes to receive the pins.
