Why are ships referred to as she/her?

First, I am REALLY sorry if this is not the right place to post this.

Second, I love warships but don’t understand why they’re referred to as she/her. What’s the history behind it?

Would it be a good idea to have classes in school dedicated to teaching men to respect women and girls?

I’m trying to get multiple viewpoints here, and what I’ve seen are that:

If it’s taught, it should apply to women as well because things could end up badly if it’s only taught to men because it teaches they are the problem

It’s a good thing it’s only taught to men because women aren’t doing nearly as much harm to men than vice versa.

I would like to know your thoughts on this?

Good books about the Pacific Theater during WWII?

I’m getting more interested into warships and I just finished reading The Restless Wave and now am on The Last Stand of the Tin Can Sailors, anything else that I can potentially find interesting?
