On further thought a note:
Both groups of insults usually are used on men, the female ones being a lower
insult, while male ones usually are reserved for males.
Male epithets of genital origin seem to be used to mean: dumb, insensitive,
 arrogant, blind, mean, slow, uncaring, thoughtless and cruel.
The ones for female: weak, faltering, inadequate, uncertain, emotionally
mercurical, grouchy, manipulative, and touchy feely.

This reflects on.....????
