In Kantai Collection, as the subtitled says, "Combined Fleet Girls Collection"
have all their fleet depicted as girls, known as "Fleet girls", or kanmusu.

In anime, and probably in game as well, the only guy is the admiral, and he
doesn't look like one of the fleet at all. Out of universe, the admiral is the
player, so he is not one of the fleet.

So, is there any in-universe canon explanation, why all the fleet are girls?

I found this on a page:"Another tradition is to consider ships as female,
referring to them as 'she'. ... Although it may sound strange referring to an
inanimate object as 'she', this tradition relates to the idea of a female
figure such as a mother or goddess guiding and protecting a ship and crew." So
on, they made fleet into girls based on the sentences in top.
