Pourquoi est-ce masculine ?

Fruit is masculine in French because it derives from the Latin "fructus" (masculine), which comes from the verb "fruī" meaning "to enjoy" or "to have the benefit of"—the noun originally referred to the benefit or produce gained from land rather than the botanical object itself. The masculine gender was preserved through the normal evolution of Latin masculine nouns into French.
