Many start as one sex, and change into the other as they grow. Some are male first, some female. Precedence follows a simple rule. In those whose sex cells are ejected into the water (with competition among sperm rather than among males themselves) it pays to be male first, because any male, small as he is, can generate large amounts of sperm while an older (and larger) female can make more and better-fed eggs.
