Haven't been through the full list but I noticed overdose which is not so surprisingly feminine given the ending and the gender of dose in French. I also guess that sex-symbol is commonly used with both genders. And soul which is feminine in French because of musique. Also start-up because of société.

Je serais curieux de savoir d'où vient le féminin de soul. Les autres musiques sont au masculin (LE rock, LE gospel, LE blues, ...)

sans doute parce que c'est bien de la "soul music" comme on dit de LA pop, parce que music est sous-entendu. Dans LE rock, on ne sous-entend pas music: j'ai jamais entendu "rock music", "blues music" etc.
