1) So I understand that the constructor, ListGenderStyle, and setLocaleMapping are actually _not_ part of this API, correct? 2) No getInstance using the current default locale? 3) Would appreciate a description of what 'list gender' is, who the clients are, and what they do with it. This appears to be the only substantive API on this class, so it's essential to understanding it and whether it needs to be broken out into API on a separate class.
