Last time this came up, I intimated that this is probably a debate to steer around, so I'm going to be a tad more blunt: Banjooie refers to himself as male here, so we should probably take it at face value.
I mean, pretending to be male if you're female? On the internet, with no other evidence? In a forum that's usually willing to take you at your word and just wants to avoid the awkward moments at DRODCon 'XX where everyone turns out to be 35, balding and in their boxers (as it were)? Lamest. Prank. Ever.
Also, from the links that turned up last time this discussion was raised, I'm guessing Banj has his reasons to dodge the question. They may range from 'I think it's funny' to 'I want to avoid being pestered' to more atypical reasons like 'I'm taking pills for it'. I shan't elaborate, you can Google it.
Google 'Banjo-Kazooie' while you're there. It's pretty good, even with Rare trying to patent the collect-a-thon genre with it.
Of course, this is why dodging the question is such a problem, because then people start coming up with wild fantasies like Banj's gender is determined by what temperature of water he was splashed with last or that Banj went into surgery a few years ago or all sorts of things. Not that saying you're female here doesn't come with its own set of problems, although it appears to help if you're Scottish.
Regarding the suggestion: I'm not sure it's a good idea to give a creature an ability they can only use as a player character. It's probably more heinous than giving player characters super abilities when they're bosses fighting your party in that there's no way for the player to know they can swim through beforehand.
