Pains (bread) is masculine in French because it derives from Latin "panis," which was masculine in gender—a gender assignment that carried over into Romance languages. The Latin masculine ending and the word's lack of a feminine-forming suffix (-e, -a, -tion, etc.) preserved its masculine classification through the evolution from Latin to Old French to Modern French.
