Answer:
The buddha statue is a male.

~Gautama Siddhartha... otherwise known as The Buddha... was a male prince who left his riches, wife and child to wander the Earth teaching.

Answer:

"A Buddha" as opposed to "The Buddha" is an enlightened person. An enlightened person can be either a male or a female.

Answer:

There are Buddhist statues of females. Quan Yin is considered one of the highest deities. So when you see a statue of "The Buddha" it may or may not actually be The Buddha, but could be a Buddhist statue of a deity.

"Buddha [one of true wisdom]: Buddha is a title bestowed on an enlightened master. The Buddha in the present cycle is Siddhartha Gautama (563 BC) who was born in a small kingdom in present day Nepal. After a renunciation of his kingdom and a long period of asceticism, he became enlightened and began teaching. His sermons form the school of philosophy called Buddhism"

Two kinds of buddhas are distinguished: the pratyeka-buddha, who is completely enlight ened but does not expound the teaching; and the samyak-sambuddha, who expounds for the wel fare of all beings the teaching that he has discovered anew. A samyak-sambuddha is omniscient (sarvajnata) and possesses the ten powers of a buddha (dashabala) and the four certainties. The buddha of our age is Shakyamuni.

Can a Buddha beeb in the same room as a goddess Buddha?

Your question is hard to answer since; (1) there are no Buddhist Gods or Goddess; (2) I do not know if you are talking about a Buddha (can be either male or female) as a current enlightened being or statues of enlightened beings. I will try to answer both. (1) You may have statues of both a Buddha and other enlightened beings (such as Tara) on your shrine at the same time. Buddhists accept all enlightened beings as being good and wholesome. (2) If you happen to be in a room with both a living Male and Female Buddha, all I can say is rejoice in their presence and learn as much as you can.

A Buddha is an individual who has achieved Enlightenment such as the Sakyamuni Buddha or the Amitabha Buddha. A Bodhisattva is a person who has achieved Enlightenment or Buddhahood, but has vowed to return to the world and the cycle of death and rebirht to aid all sentient beings on their paths to Buddhahood.
