Why is it feminine?
Missões is feminine because it derives from Latin "missio" (a sending or dispatch). In Latin, "missio" is a feminine noun of the third declension. When Portuguese evolved, this feminine gender was preserved, and the word developed the feminine ending "-ão," which is the standard Portuguese reflex of Latin third-declension feminine nouns ending in "-io". The "-ão" suffix itself did not feminize the noun; rather, it reflects the feminine gender already present in the Latin source.
