So as far as I can tell the rule for deciding if a french word is feminine is “does it end with an e”.
There are exceptions and French people claim that’s not how it works, but it is an incredibly useful heuristic
I feel that ‘gender’ is probably a misleading term for the languages that have ‘grammatical gender’, it rarely has anything to do with genitalia. ‘Noun class’, where adjectives have to decline to agree with the class would fit better in most cases.
English essentially does not have decline adjectives, except for historical outliers like blond/e where no-one much cares if you don’t bother, and uses his / hers / its / erc using a very predictable rule. So no ‘grammatical gender’.
Ella has a penis. A feminine penis.
Une pene
Une moustache
Un vagine⚜️⚧️⚜️
In spanish “pene” is masculine. However “una pene” (fem) is a much more interesting concept. Even more if we throw in some diminutives. “una penesita”
I actually jokingly call dicks “pussos” with my girlfriend in spanish.
Una pene makes no sense. Also it would technically be penecillo, with a c. However, we do use polla which is akin to dick/cock and is feminine. We also say coño which means vagina and that is masculine
Cimbrel, carajo, picha, polla, tranca, rabo… Tiene nombres mil el miembro viril! (Yeah idk why we have so many words for penis)
It’s a language essential! Dick, willy, cock, penis, shaft, manhood, todger, pole, …
