Answer 1

with Male as
(
  select Names,
         row_number() over(order by Names) as rn
  from YourTable
  where Gender = 'Male'
),
Female as
(
  select Names,
         row_number() over(order by Names) as rn
  from YourTable
  where Gender = 'Female'
)
select Male.Names as Male,
       Female.Names as Female
from Male
  full outer join Female
    on Male.rn = Female.rn

Jack    Jane
