It's not particularly private information if

disclosing it every time you want to produce grammatically correct

This is not true for German, and it is easy to rephrase most things in Italian
and French so as not to disclose one's sex. Maybe in other languages that's
different though.
In most European languages the adjectives for each gender are different.
In Polish it's even harder not to disclose your gender, as the past tense
is formed from past form of the word to be + an adjectival form of the verb.
