Hello friend,
In Scripture, those angels that are named, have masculine names.
We can take from that, that from our perspective, they would be
masculine identities.
But ... regarding gender equaling sex, it would not be so.
All angels are created beings. Angels do not reproduce. No where in God's Book will you read of that.
Angels do not as a rule, have corporeal bodies as do we.
Thus they are in a spiritual realm. You can read of Godly angels that, by God's providence, took human form, But only as God permitted and only for His purpose and Glory. See Gen 18:2 etc,
Acts 1:10,11 Hebrews 13:2.
I did not refer you to Joshua 13:3-25 because some folks think that this was a pre-incarnate appearance of Christ. As do I.
In Revelation, you can read about a lot of angels. Especially one interesting one in chapter 10.
Blessings,
2 Tim 2:7

No, they are not human.
In the New Testament we are told in heaven we will be like angels and no longer have sex. So I assume this means they have no gender. However, they always appear as men and have masculine names in the bible.

Gender is necessary for procreation on the physical plane.
Angels do not create so gender is unnecessary.

I think only in images but apparently, no one in heaven will have a need to have a gender.
