Why the IS can only be piloted by females.

For some inexplicable reason the IS can only be piloted by females in the show. There is no reason as to why only females can pilot it and why Ichika happens to be able to. The show even acknowledges the fact that there is no good reason for it by having Ichika ask himself why he can. During the tenth episode I had an epiphany as to why the IS work this way. During an earlier episode it's mentioned that the IS have a personality of sorts, so what stopping their female creator from giving them a male personality and that in turn making them only accept female pilots, and that Ichika's IS just happens to be gay. I realized as I wrote this all down just how stupid it sounds but it's just a thought that gives a dumb reason to an even dumber plot hole.

Well. That's why I wrote in my review that its just an excuse to give protagonist(what's his name again? Doesn't matter) an excuse to a school full of girls.

Also, he also pretty much failed at showing any strengthening of women that would make a teenage feminist proud, the girls were just like any generic girls in the background.
