hi!!
most of the tricks I've found is harsher angles for almost everything. sharper jaw, wider shoulders, thicker neck. you don't have to draw them all big and buff, you can draw thinner or more 'feminine' looking guys and slowly build up. but in the end, you get to decide what is a boy and what is a girl and what is anything in between. Super long hair, soft face, thicc as all hell? sure, still a dude! Jaw so sharp it cuts diamonds and a flatter chest? boom, woman. its your art, have fun with it!

•Hey, welcome to Artfol! 
Keep shapes in mind and don't be afraid to use references! Angles and less curves tend to read as more masculine. Hair style and clothing can also help show the gender (or lack thereof) of your characters. Sorry I'm not much help

Welcome!!
I'd say, just remember that males are more rectangular than girls and have less curves (?)
Im bad at giving advice and idk how to explain things
