Preventing Nested Grouping When Adding Rows to Pivot Table in Excel

With the picture above in mind, I am trying to form pivots for each different age category and gender, using Excel 2016. Currently, however, when I add age and gender to the row category of pivot tables, it forms a nested group by.

Instead, I need to have un-nested/distinct pivots for the genders and age categories.

Is there anyway to achieve this in Excel?

You can write code to create multiple copies of your pivot table, or just copy and paste manually, but you can't make a pivot table not group nested fields. That's the entire point of a pivot table, after all.
