There are genetic females who are sterile, such as worker ants, worker bees, etc. There are also, I believe, some hermaphrodite insects. None totally without gender, though. Some invertebrates are genderless or have both or have more than two types.

Gender is a cultural term, not exactly a scientific one.
Gender roles, gender confusion, etc.
As far sex is concerned, there are plenty of animals/insects that are, for lack of a better term, hermaphrodites.
Earthworms have both male and female sex organs, for instance. It just depends.
