Pourquoi est-ce masculine ?

Paradoxos is masculine in Portuguese because it derives from Latin "paradoxum," which itself comes from Greek "paradoxos" (παράδοξος), and Latin neuter nouns ending in "-um" typically become masculine in Romance languages when the neuter gender collapsed. The word literally means "contrary to opinion" (para- + doxa, opinion).
