Relating to the female, the woman (in the case of persons) or her gender. From the Latin femina ("female, nursing") as an evolution of fellans ("lactate"), which if they do not come from an ancient common word, surely takes it from the Greek 952; 951; 955; 965; 962; ( thelus "female, nursing") . [Note: even ignoring the range of sexual orientations, it cannot be said that 'feminine' is an antonym of 'masculine', perhaps a complement from the reproductive point of view. ] See also son .
