Why is it feminine?
Razões is feminine because it derives from Latin "ratio" (feminine, third declension), which was feminine in gender. Portuguese inherited this feminine gender from Latin, and the -ão ending in this case reflects the Latin nominative form. While many -ão nouns in modern Portuguese are masculine, "razão" is one of several -ão nouns that retained feminine gender from their Latin feminine origins.
