No it's not. A new gender for a race is essentially a new race in itself. Look at how different all of the current races are gender-wise. Sure, you have the midlander hyur and the lalafells where the differences are minor, but then look at the highlander hyur, roegadyn and au ra.

Writing more lore isn't really taxing, most of the effort comes in making the new models and animations.
