Why is it masculine?
Cuellos is masculine because it derives from the Latin "collum," which was a neuter noun in classical Latin. During the evolution from Latin to Spanish, neuter nouns were largely reabsorbed into other gender categories. The masculine ending "-o" in Spanish, combined with regular sound changes (Latin "collum" > Spanish "cuello"), resulted in this word being classified as masculine in modern Spanish.
