Why is it feminine?

Méchancetés is feminine because it derives from the Old French adjective "mechant" with the feminine suffix "-té" (from Latin "-tate"), which consistently produces feminine nouns denoting abstract qualities or states—similar to "bonté" (goodness) and "clarté" (clarity). This "-té" suffix maintained the feminine gender from its Latin origins throughout the Romance languages.
