Funniest example I know is how vagina is masculine in French.

[-] d4f0@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

In Spanish some words for vagina are femenine and some masculine. The same happens with penis.

La vagina, la concha, el coño. How many more are there?

[-] d4f0@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

El chocho, el chichi, la chirla, la almeja, el papo, el potorro, ...

And a lot more.

Haha, fair enough. Lots of them if you count every dialect.

And "beard" in Russian (борода, baraDA) is feminine.

[-] xxxSexMan69xxx 1 points 2 years ago

Yup, in several slavic languages actually

Also in latin languages. I suspect it may be common to all indoeuropean languages
