This reminds me of the book Speaker for the Dead, which is book 2 in the Ender's game series. The creatures found on the new planet had different languages for men and women. I wonder if Orson Scott Card took inspiration from some of these cultures in building the narrative for the book!

Came here to say the same thing. I wouldn't be surprised if he did take inspiration from those cultures; he was a missionary (for the LDS church) in Brazil.
