I think in general male/female combos give you the best chance of them getting along really well. However, that doesn't mean that 2 females wont get along or that all male/female combos will work.
In the end though- you get another dog for YOU, not your dog- so you should get the gender of dog you are most comfortable with. In the end when you add a new dog to the home, you make a lifelong commitment to that dog- that means working through any problems that arise- that may mean keeping your dogs separate if they don't get along and spending individual time with them. So really, you should get the dog that works best for you and then take every precaution to make sure it works our between all the dogs in the house.
