When I was a kid, every letter and number seemed to have a gender to me.
T is male. M is female and dating Mr. N.
T is a strong, amazonian woman. t is a tomboy skater who likes competitive street boxing.
back in the olden times, straight lines were masculine and curved lines were feminine.
Same for me except my number genders are different. 1,3,5,6,9 are male and 2,4,7,8 are female. 0 is still nb. I'd have to really think about the letters since they are more nuanced. Numbers definitely have hard gender though.
It's one of those things I didn't really think hard about. It's more like, just the "feeling" I got from them XD.
Not even sure what causes it tbh
That sounds like a very unusual form of synesthesia.

One of the few, if only, mental "disorders" I wouldn't mind having.
