Answer: The ideal answer will include:
1. Third gender roles exist as a legitimate alternative to male and female in some cultures.
2. An example is the two-spirit people in some American Indian groups.
3. Gender pluralism refers to the presence of multiple categories of masculinity, femininity, and blurred gender roles within a culture.
4. An example is the hijras in India.
5. These examples demonstrate that culture, and not simply biology, shapes gender categories.
