Masculine Feminine Words

Anyone know of a dictionary or way to tell if a word is more masculine or feminine? Jisho.com has the very obvious ones like 俺 and 僕, but it won't tell you that やかましい is used by older men (うるさい being the one used by younger people) or that 気に入り sounds masculine and to make it sound more feminine you add お気に入り。

I think there are not many gender differences written in Japanese to differentiate masculine from feminine words.
