It seems like Chinese still, at least, has the English compromise of a female pronoun and an alternately unmarked and male pronoun, which works pretty well to the extent that it allows ambiguity, but at the weakness of possibly being cumbersome when needing to specify male man. And when that degree of specificity is required, presumably the explicit type casting is a manageable cost.
