Ok, I found my answer via IRC. It turns out that there are constants for
Gender. 1 is for female and 2 is for male.

Subject: error adding an Outlook Contact…
Ok, I’m adding in new Contacts in Outlook from a MS SQL Server database.
It fails on Gender. If I add the gender field to ‘user1’ or something else,
it’s just fine. At first I thought it was because my datasource has an "M"
instead of “Male” – so catch that and change it. Below is the debug output
from my script.
Any thoughts?

This is where I am (R.) MiddleName
This is where I am (Dudley) FirstName
This is where I am (Male) GENDER
