d. transgenderism

Answer 1

Answer:

a. androgyny.

Explanation:

Androgyny explains the merging, in a single adult, of typical male and female characteristics. Androgynous people often articulate themselves in ways that contradict expectations of gender, thus, they do not look either female or male.  Some characteristics described as feminine included yielding, soft-spoken, caring, and understanding. Several that were included as masculine included behaving as a dictator, able to take chances, and confident and assertive. As per the question, Hugh exhibits the traits of both feminine and masculine gender and therefore ascribed to be androgyny.
