Why is it feminine?

Desordens is feminine because it derives from Latin "disordinatus" (disordered) and Old French "desordre." In Portuguese, it inherited the feminine gender from Latin feminine nouns ending in "-ine" or similar forms. The word follows the Portuguese pattern where many nouns ending in "-em" are feminine, particularly those inherited from Latin feminine forms. This is a lexical inheritance pattern rather than an exception—Portuguese nouns ending in "-em" are predominantly feminine.
