Why is it feminine?

Sedes is feminine in Portuguese. It derives from Latin "sēdes" (seat, abode), which was a feminine noun of the third declension, and this grammatical gender was preserved through the evolution from Latin to Portuguese. The feminine gender is maintained from the Latin feminine form despite the "-e" ending, which is not a typical feminine marker in Portuguese (where "-a" is more common for feminine nouns).
