Why is it masculine?
Objectif is masculine because it derives from the Latin "objectivus," which inherited the masculine gender from "objectus" (the past participle of "obicere," meaning "to throw against"), and Latin masculine nouns typically remained masculine when adopted into French. This grammatical gender was preserved through regular sound changes rather than following a logical rule based on meaning.
