Why is it masculine?
Interesses is masculine in Portuguese. It derives from Latin "interesse" (literally "to be between"), which was a neuter noun. However, the rule oversimplifies the gender shift: Portuguese actually lost the neuter gender entirely, and Latin neuter nouns were redistributed between masculine and feminine genders based on various phonetic and morphological patterns. "Interesse" became masculine, likely influenced by its Latin nominative form and the masculine -e ending pattern in Portuguese.
