Pourquoi est-ce masculine ?
But is masculine in French. The word meaning "goal" or "aim" is indeed masculine (le but). While the rule correctly identifies the word and its gender, the etymology is somewhat speculative. The word likely derives from Old French and has Germanic or possibly Latin origins related to the concept of a target or endpoint. French gender is ultimately a lexical property that must be memorized for each noun, as gender assignments don't follow predictable rules consistently.
