Yeah, a lot of european languages have a three gender system: masculine, feminine and neuter

Proto-Indo-European, the language which most European (and some South Asian languages) originate from, had a three gender system

Even English used to have a three gender system before it disappeared in the Middle English period

Despite the name, the neuter gender tends to not be used for people, although in some languages (such as Polish) the use of the neuter gender to refer to non-binary people is gaining traction
