This search is pretty tricky outside of SQL. The easiest way to do this is
to use a Package.

Make an Constituent Package with all the records that have a Gender
Attribute set (ThesXrefType = 'Gender') and give it a meaningful name, like
"Has Gender"

Now exclude that package from your result set, either by searching for
Constituents where the PackageName IS NOT "Has Gender" (or whatever you
named the package) or using the "Remove List From Current Selection" action
in Package Explorer.
