It means two houses, as in "The United States has a bicameral legislature because laws pass through the House of Representatives and the Senate." As far as I know, there are some female reps...so I suppose they would have a bicameral profession. But then again, you probably don't really care about any of this because you're asking dumb questions.

It's usually used in reference to a legislature or parliament that consists of two houses. Here in the US, for example, we have a bicameral legislature consisting of the House of Representatives and the Senate.

bicameral refers to a legislature consisting of two houses (see Unicameral).
The Indian Parliament conists of the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha: so it's bicameral.
