Some primitive species have only one gender, while there are also various hermaphrodite species. However, having two genders, or sexes, provides evolutionary advantages because both parents contribute to the genetic makeup of the offspring. In species where offspring require two parents, beneficial genetic variations can propagate more readily throughout the entire population.

A third gender would seem to offer no genetic advantage, but just complicate relationships.
