<upd_refs>A Dictionary of Basic Japanese Grammar:
    A suffix attached to the first or last name of a male equal or to the first or last name of a person whose status or rank is lower than the speaker's.

    A male may address females of lower rank by 君. A female student may address males of equal or lower rank by 君. Such addresses are commonly used in situations such as schools and companies.

Wiktionary: "-kun is often used as a suffix when calling someone. The listener is lower or the same level in social position and is often, but not always, male."

Tofugu (https://www.tofugu.com/japanese/name-enders/#how--is-used-now-4):
　　　　You usually use 君 with people of the same or lower status than you.

　　　　It can be used for either gender, especially in formal and business situations, but outside that 君 is most often used for boys and men"
