The masculine gender is the default in ancient Greek, which means that the masculine gender is used to describe any person or group of people containing at least one man. The feminine gender would only be used when referring to a female person or a group of people who are all female. <br /><br />I haven't looked specifically into that particular passage, but I suspect that John meant "parents" by "fathers" and "children" by "sons."
