From the given statement, we can find the gender of T and R.
Possibility:
If both T and R are female → there will be 2 male members.
If anyone of either T or R is male → there will be 3 male members.
If both T and R are male → there will be 4 male members.
Thus there maybe 2 or 3 or 4 male members will be present in this family.
