no they did not due to the fact that a sponsor would have to pay for a gladiators replacement if they died, sponsors usually let the gladiator live (gladiators had a 90% chance of surviving a fight).
Yes, they did. The Third Servile War (73-71 BC), also called the Gladiator War and the War of Spartacus by Plutarch, was the last of a series of unrelated and unsuccessful slave rebellions against the Roman Republic, known collectively as theRoman Servile Wars.
No, gladiators did not fight snakes. Snakes are not good animals for purposes of combat, since they normally will just try to get away, rather than attacking people. Also, an armed gladiator could easily kill a snake. Snakes can be dangerous because they are venomous, but it is not hard to kill one with a sword.

Rome Is Where Gladiators Fight
Well, gladiators were usually homosexual.
No, they were slaves taken in war.
Most of the gladiators were slaves. Slaves in antiquity were civilian war captives. Therefore, slaves and prisoners were one and the same thing. There were some freemen who volunteered to be gladiators
An empire as big as the Roman, there was always fighting going on somewhere, from which war prisoners could be get to make gladiators.

No, no, and no. Gladiators had nothing to do with the military unless they happened to be prisoners of war. Military heroes were honored and held in high esteem in ancient Rome. The gladiators were at the bottom of society.
Yes and they were slaves or POW's from a war with Rome. Women in Ancient Rome had a defined place. Women were slaves, but not gladiators.
Surviving gladiators could retire. The successful gladiators could make quite a lot of money. Gladiators were allowed to keep the prize money of the contests and famous gladiators received substantial donations from rich people and, sometimes, emperors. Successful gladiators were very popular and were treated like heroes. It is thought that some retired gladiators worked as teachers at the gladiatorial schools.
