This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:

SELECT ALL THAT APPLY. Pierre is a slender French man who likes to wear a bright purple scarf and skinny jeans. Nathan, an American, tried wearing a brightly colored scarf, but his roommate said it made him look like a girl. This illustrates which points?

A. Pierre exhibits hegemonic masculinity.

B. Gender performance is static based on one's upbringing.

C. Masculinity is fluid and how it is performed can vary across social settings.

D. We merge gendered expectations with those of other intersectional statuses.

I believe the correct answers are letters C and D.

C. Masculinity is fluid and how it is performed can vary across social settings.

D. We merge gendered expectations with those of other intersectional statuses.

Explanation:

According to George Ritzer's book "Essentials of Sociology", gender performance is not static. Quite the opposite, it is fluid, so individuals get to choose how to perform gender according to socially defined roles. Notice that Pierre has chosen to wear the purple scarf and skinny jeans, and that the society in which he is inserted does not interpret this as a sign of femininity.

Also, according to the same author, we merge gendered expectations with those of other statuses, such as sexual orientation, race, and class, for instance. In Nathan's case, as a heterosexual man, he is not expected to dress in bright purple and skinny jeans. That would, however, be expected of homosexual men and of women in general, at least in the society Nathan is inserted.
