Most definitely feminine
Our 337 is "Jackie", in tribute to Jacqueline "Jackie" Cochran.
The first woman:
To enter the Bendix race, winning it and setting a transcontinental speed record.
To fly a bomber across the Atlantic.
To break the sound barrier.
To land and take off from an aircraft carrier.
To make an instrument landing.
To fly a jet across the Atlantic.
To be president of the Federation Aeronautique International (to date, the only woman).
And the holder of more distance and speed records than any pilot, male or female, living or dead.
An astonishing pilot.
Also, I play a fretless electric bass named "Lula." Musical instruments are definitely feminine.
