Why is it masculine?
The suffix "-ator" is masculine in Portuguese because it derives from Latin "-ator," which was inherently a masculine grammatical gender marker used to denote agent nouns (those performing an action), and this gender assignment persisted through Portuguese's evolution from Latin. This contrasts with the feminine "-atriz" (from Latin "-atrix"), which was the explicitly feminine form of the same suffix.
