German nouns have grammatical gender. Studies have conclusively shown that people mostly think of men if the grammatical gender of a noun is masculine. To support gender equality, its recommended to use inclusive language e.g. neutral formulations (Studierende) or the pair form (Studentinnen und Studenten), and not the, unfortunately, widely used generic masculinum (Studenten).
