Check the highlighted part of the stem:

Team A and Team B are competing against each other in a game of tug-of-war. Team A, consisting of 3 males and 3 females, decides to lineup male, female, male, female, male, female. The lineup that Team A chooses will be one of how many different possible lineups?


So does this mean in "GMAT language" that every 1st, 3rd and 5th person in the lineup MUST be a male? If so, I get it. I guess it's about practicing GMAT language...[/quote]

Well, yes. How else? The stem directly specifies the desired line-up: it should start with a male and then alternate females and males.
