Probably because the user namespaces in Portuguese Wikipedia were fixed to the Brazilian versions "Usuário" and "Usuário Discussão" in bug 27495, the expected change of MediaWiki 1.18 which would adapt the user namespace to the gender set in preferences did not happen. The current "Usuário" and "Usuário Discussão" are the exclusively male versions. Women should have "Usuária" and "Usuária Discussão" and, if possible, a neutral way for those who have not set their gender is "Usuário(a)" and "Usuário(a) Discussão". Thanks!
