I don’t think it’s offensive by any means, but I think it would be better as a society to get away from labeling things as masculine and feminine in a way that refers back to a traditional gender binary and assumptions. The A/B system serves that, though it fumbles when your character’s pronouns are also determined by this choice.
Personally I think they ought to make two base bodies (small and large) and then add boobs as a toggle for both. And none of this business with separate hair and face options either.
Testosterone based body fat distribution and estrogen based body fat distribution.
Then no one can be angry! After all that’s basically what your picking the standardized body shape caused by fat distribution primarily dictated by the primary sex hormone in the body.
No one can get upset if you just label everything clinically. At least not with out being a dipshit about it.

Just call it what it is.
