Best Answer

In English there are no masculine or feminine forms. English uses gender specific nouns for male or female.

The noun 'stewardess' is a gender specific noun for a female.

The gender specific noun is becoming obsolete in favor of the common gender nouns such as 'cabin crew' or 'flight attendant' since the attendant may be a male or a female.

The suffix "-ess" usually denotes a female role, such as stewardess or lioness or mistress.

The Oxford dictionary defines the noun 'steward' as a person who looks after the passengers on a ship, aircraft, or train.
