Why is it feminine?
Parejas is feminine because it derives from the Latin "paria," the neuter plural of "par" (meaning equal or pair). In Spanish and other Romance languages, Latin neuter plurals often became feminine in gender. Although the word's meaning evolved from "things that are equal" to "a couple or pair of people," the feminine grammatical gender was retained through this semantic shift.
