I translated all of this info from a Japanese Disgaea wiki, which is very informative. The Gunner class is much more evenly built between sexes than the Mage jobclasses. The real question the player should consider when deciding which to make, is what they want out of their Gunner. Ultimately both help the party in different ways.

The male Gunner increases damage, accuracy, and critical hit rate of Combo attacks, increasing the party’s efficiency. The Gunslinger on the other hand increases earned HL and helps get items from the Bonus list as well as causing monsters to drop items. Their rank 6 evilites are also pretty even; the male Gunner gets a great speed boost, raising his evasion, and the Gunslinger gets a range increase.

In the long run the male Gunner may be the better choice for the post-game when HL and items are second to conquering tough bosses. Check back for more info as I am always on the lookout for news on Disgaea 3.
