I'm not sure why you need to do this but given you say you want to do this.
You don't necessarily need a stored procedure. The T-SQL to do the update is:

UPDATE employee SET gender ='male' WHERE gender = 'female'

You can create a SP if you want:

SQL

CREATE PROCEDURE UpdateGenders
AS
BEGIN
    UPDATE employee SET gender ='male' WHERE gender = 'female'
    END
