Is the word feminine or masculine?

The word "feminine" itself is neither masculine nor feminine.

It's an adjective describing qualities typically associated with women or the female sex.

However, the word "feminine" itself is grammatically neutral. It can be used to describe both masculine and feminine nouns.

For example:

* "The feminine touch in the room was evident in the floral arrangements." (Describing a feminine quality)

* "He had a feminine voice that could melt your heart." (Describing a masculine noun with a feminine quality)
