¿Por qué es feminine?

Cortes is feminine because it derives from Latin "cohors" (cohortis, feminine), which became "corte" in Spanish. The feminine gender was retained through regular phonetic evolution of the Latin feminine form. In Spanish, "corte" means both "court" (royal court) and "cut" (the action of cutting), with the former sense being historically primary and feminine.
