History
See page Masculina.

After Miraheze user Mike7outlaw coined Masculina, he decided there should be an "opposite" term. That led him to coin this term after checking if Google Translate also added the Masculine form of Feminine in Spanish.

Etymology
As stated in the page Masculina, Feminino is the grammatically incorrect term of "Feminine" in English. The letter "A" is always feminine in Spanish, and the letter "O" is usually masculine in Spanish, but can also be considered neutral.
