As a broad rule - gender of words associated with the body can be determined as to whether we have one, two or more than two.
If we have 1 or more than 2 they tend to be masculine. If we have 2 they tend to be feminine.
This doesn't always hold true but can help as a guide.
If you really must know the names of the "naughty bits" then you can find them on this page:

BUT be warned there are words that will shock some people on the page!!!
