What's the perk if the noun genders might make no sense?
Ian Bell
if you want to fug an inanimate object you'd want to know it's gender wouldn't you?
Noah Hill
As in Italy there are countless ways to say "penis" there are even female names like "nerchia" or "minchia"
Evan Sanchez
I can't think of a more inherently masculine thing than a penis.
Jonathan Jones
penis is male but the informal word (like dick or cock) is female
Colton Lewis
umm.. gender != sex

>masculine
the patriarchy wins again
Nolan Flores
Honestly assign genders (in italian at least) not always as to do with something being more feminine or masculine, also for some objects we have both genders, with no particular reason es: "the table" -> il tavolo (masculine)/ la tavola (feminine), and we use both with no particular reasons
Jack Watson
same in French

Americans don't get what noun gender is.
Being monolingual will do that to you.
Blake Phillips
also la verga, la picha, la pilila

There is no inherent reason for a word to be male or female just because it refers to a male genital.
O pênis - masculine
A pica - feminino
O caralho
A jeba
A trozoba
O pau
O pinto
O piu-piu
O peru
A cobra-de-um-olho-só
O monstro-de-um-olho-só
O pingolim
A vara
Etc.
The same way you call a woman "um gênio" (a genius, masculine), you can call a man "uma estrela" (a star, feminine). The nouns' gender take precedence if it's not describing a profession/role, where nouns have separate forms for males and females.
