Why is it masculine?
Tenedores is masculine because it derives from the Latin "tenētor" (one who holds), which inherited the masculine gender from Latin's agent noun suffix "-tor," a grammatically masculine ending that Spanish retained in words like "tenedor" (fork/holder). This masculine gender persisted even though the object itself—a fork—has no inherent gender and the word's meaning shifted from "one who holds" to the kitchen utensil.
