Yes, taryal.  As I see, if the sex is determined before entry, then the gandhabba would only take the ‘right’ XX’ or ‘XY’  combination into consideration.  

You got me wondering: what about gandhabbas newly created after the end of a previous bhava, even if that previous bhava happened to be a human one? Say, a brahma dies and grasps a human bhava. Brahmas are sexless, so the prominent gender from the past, or the one of the two that ‘needs addressing ‘ the more would take precedence.
