Why is it masculine?
Meses is masculine because it derives from Latin "mensis," which was a masculine noun (following the third declension pattern), and Portuguese inherited this grammatical gender along with the word itself. The masculine gender persisted through the language's evolution from Vulgar Latin despite the word's meaning (a time period) not having an obvious semantic reason for masculinity.
