Neither I nor Game-Fanatic ever said that changing gender during regeneration as such was an anomaly, that I recall; what we said was that most Time Lords have a main gender that most of their regenerations adhere to, and then one or two incarnations that fall out of line. And I think there's plenty of evidence for that. The General's "back to normal" after she returns to being a woman, the Doctor's stunned (but enthusing) reaction at becoming a woman, the Doctor referring to the Corsair as a "bloke" first and foremost and then noting he was a she "a couple of times".
