I think you mean hermaphrodite? Transvestite would be one of them cross-dressing (unless the dictionary I found is horribly off-base, in which case I apologize), whereas a fusion dance would likely combine their physical sexes into one body.
Not that it'd matter, since Gotenks is a fighter, not a lover. Also, they're children.

I have a message from another time...Well, A: a pink shirt isn't really female clothing (shirts are unisex), and B: Vegeta didn't exacty choose to wear the Bad Man shirt.
By that logic, Goku is closer to that distinction, what with the disguise he wore the first time he met Oolong. Though, that was out of necessity rather than out of wanting to cross-dress. So not really that, either.

I have a message from another time...My bad.
I meant Hermaphrodite.
So here's a funny thought that just hit me via a secondary source:
Bulma is finally gonna get her chance to see Frieza.
One Strip! One Strip!Yeah, I just felt a need to bring up Goku's disguise.
And how would that be determined?
I just think it makes sense for it to be either both or neither, what with he way the fusion dance is so adamant about things being matched perfectly in order to work.

I have a message from another time...Also, it just raises the slightly more awkward idea that when they're older, Gotenks would play with his own boobs more likely than not.
My various fanfics.Well, popularity wasn't really my concern here. I was more interested in how such a change would affect the narrative - I can't see it hurting. But on that note, how would making Goten a girl hurt Dragon Ball's popularity.
As for Gotenks...didn't Steven Universe do a male-female fusion in one episode?

Oh God! Natural light!I'd love to see Masako X and Little Kuriboh redub that trailer. Props if they sing the songs as well. eue
Bulma is finally gonna get her chance to see Frieza.
Bulma: "Honestly, I'm underwhelmed. I thought he'd be taller."

Oh God! Natural light!On the whole male female fusion, Digital Devil Saga 2 did it and also had a standard hermaphrodite in it.

He returns...
