I don't think so personally. If you're the type where your vote is dictated by the gender of the candidate then you're likely already voting red regardless.
That being said, there isn't enough data out there to accurately state the real reasons why she was lost so I can't actually say that you're wrong.
Not voting is an option. And Harris got 13m fewer voters than Biden last year. Where do you think they went?
Harris did a lot of stupid shit that disenfranchised a lot of voters. She banked on the fact that most of the left would rally to her because of their hatred of Trump while also trying to court the moderates and Republican voters. All that failed catastrophically.
