I'm trying to put a spinner on a layout for android app. Unlike other components, the spinner does not come with an option to give a hint. How can I do it?

This is my spinner:

<Spinner
    android:id="@+id/spinner_gender"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:entries="@array/gender"
    android:background="@android:color/white" />

When it's not selected I want to show a text like "Gender". When we select it i want that we can't select the option gender and that we only select Male or Female.

The options inside spinner are in an xml called where I keep the arrays.

Thanks.
