I don't know, but it does look like the Guiness Book of World Records record-holder is male, so there's that. On the other hand, the record notes his wife is the world burrito champion, so...:

Most hot dogs eaten in three minutes

Who: Nicholas Wehry

What: 12 total number

Where: United States (Tampa)

When: 22 October 2022

The most hot dogs eaten in three minutes is 12, and was achieved by Nicholas Wehry (USA) in Tampa, Florida, USA, on 22 October 2022.

Nicholas Whery is married to fellow competitive eater Miki Sudo, who achieved the fastest time to eat a burrito on the same day.

EDIT: No, from her Wikipedia article, it sounds like they have separate men's and women's competitions:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miki_Sudo

Miki Victoria Sudo (born July 23, 1985[2][3]) is an American competitive eater. She won the women's competition at the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest every year from 2014 to 2020, unseating Sonya Thomas, who had won the women's competition since its inception in 2011.

The Guiness Book of World Records apparently doesn't for that single "three minute" category, but does apparently track the per-gender winners of this Nathan's competition:
