C-3P0, our translator for R2's boopspeak uses he/him pronouns for the little guy and so does at least Luke so he's effectively masc presenting. One could argue he's a man but the society he's in effectively classes sentient droids as property without the reserve they do for non-artificial species and are unlikely to confer the other cultural aspects "manhood" onto a droid.
