You must get gender from your database and store it in a variable then have something like

if($reqs && $gender=='female') $newbud = ": <a href=\"../friends/index.php?action=reqs&amp;gender=2\"><img src=\"../images/female.png\" hight=\"45\" width=\"45\" alt=\"Request\"/>Female</a>";
else if($reqs && $gender =='male')$newbud = ": <a href=\"../friends/index.php?action=reqs&amp;gender=2\"><img src=\"../images/male.png\" hight=\"45\" width=\"45\" alt=\"Request\"/>Male</a>";
else if($reqs)$newbud = ": <a href=\"../friends/index.php?action=reqs&amp;gender=2\"><img src=\"../images/both.png\" hight=\"45\" width=\"45\" alt=\"Request\"/></a>"; 

Well... something almost like that
