Why is it masculine?
Chanteurs is masculine because it derives from the Latin "cantator" (singer), which carried masculine grammatical gender that was preserved through Old French into modern French, where the masculine form remained the standard for the profession. The corresponding feminine form "chanteuse" was created by adding the feminine suffix "-euse" to the root, making "chanteur" the base masculine form from which the feminine was derived.
