Category talk:Feminine given names

Feminine & Masculine
Why is there a category for "Feminine Given Names" when there is NOT one for "Masculine Given Names"? This seems sexist to me. There is no reason to separate out Given Names by gender in an English speaking context, because there are no laws in English speaking countries that limit names by gender. Though most names are traditionally used almost exclusively for one gender, there are plenty of names which are used for both genders, and the list of such names is actually constantly expanding. It seems to me that it would be much better to have one category for "Given names" and to have the gender associations of each name discussed in each individual article about each individual name.

 * There was already a category:Masculine given names, but I can understand why you did not see it, as it was several pages further on. I have changed two things: (i) the Feminine category was sorting at the top, now it's under F; (ii) I have added  on this and a few other pages, to assist with navigation by showing all the sub-cats of the parent category. Thanks for drawing attention to the problem, Clevelandkentevans. - Fayenatic (talk) 13:03, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

There are several names (pages) in the listed subcategories that do not appear on the main list of pages in the category; one example is "Zoe" (I'm not proficient with this website's syntax so here's a url: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zoe_(name) ) is listed under Greek Feminine Names correctly (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Greek_feminine_given_names), and shows up on that list but does not show up on Feminine Given Names.
