The lessons are with our female host and many examples are given of vocabulary in the feminine gender.

For example, this lesson has "Obrigada.", which is used by female speakers to say "Thank you.":

I’m a new user, and I love the lessons you do, but it’s disappointing that the male form is often taught as the default, and frustrating that - as in this lessom - no mention of the feminine is even made. This leaves your female learners having to go look up the feminine form themselves in all the lessons where this happens. As a paying user, I would expect more equality for your customers.

I know teaching the male perspective is historically standard in teaching languages with gender, but society is moving beyond this - it would be great if your lessons reflected it. Your female customers would at least appreciate it.

I’ve just logged in to my account and I see that it’s Brazilian Portuguese. I will be traveling and living in Portugal. Is there a Portugal Portuguese version?
