If they're genderless you can't call them by a gender cos that wouldn't make any sense... I have no idea what the alternative is though ... Unsexed , maybe.
I'm writing a story with sex/genderless characters, should I just call them by a gender either way or is their an alternative?
If you are writing a story for a very small niche market then use the appropriate pronouns.
If your story is for general audiences and you have no agenda many of your general audience will be either confused or resistant to a very small, though loud, SJW agenda.
The alternative to he or she is "it". The trouble with using "it" is that it will depersonalise your characters and your readers may identify with them.
Unless this is a story portraying the future,
remember this is the twentieth century so
your audience can relate. However your right,
in the future there are no more genders. Humans
lose the ability to procreate by them selves.
If your characters are genderless, they are genderless. Maybe use pronoun "they", call characters by their names and have some kind of explanation (if you think it is needed) separate from the story like some kind of prologue or epilogue?
