How is one supposed to know which color represents men and which one represents women?

By using their brains? Like, even a child would be able to recognise which colour means what gender.

Still a graph should have a legend

Not necessarily - It might add more clutter than the value it adds.

Then just make the image taller so you can put a legend at the bottom?

Colorblind people exist.

That dosen't make sense. How would they correspond the legend to the respective bars.

Colorblind people can see different shades of select colors, depending on their cone deficiency. Not necessarily pink or blue, maybe different shades of brown or other muddled colors. They can correspond from a legend, but that legend doesn't exist.
