    <option value='Male'>Male</option>
    <option value='Female'>Female</option>
</select>

You can use the 'Random Element' from the Faker Library. Random Element returns a random item from the list of items provided.

*** Settings *** 
Library    FakerLibrary

*** Test Cases ***
Randomise gender selection
    ${gender}    Select random gender    
    Select from list by value   xpath://select[@name='gender']    ${gender}   

*** Keywords ***
Select random gender
    ${randomValue}    Random Element    ['Male', 'Female']

    [Return]    ${randomValue}

This will randomise gender selection in the test case. In case you want to add more items to your list, you can add it in the list argument following the Random Element keyword.

Note: Make sure to install and import the FakerLibrary
