*** Only, a meeting early-ish in the manga shows that there is at least ''one'' female handler.
** Biologically speaking, females tend to have stronger hearts in order to be able to handle pregnancy. While the sex of the recipient might not matter for prosthetics, it could very well be a point of concern for cyborgs (at least the process of becoming one).

It's still speculation, but it would basically be the perfect, final YouSuck moment for Jose; all this time he's been forcing his beloved sister into combat. It would be the perfect catalyst for a final showdown with the Agency itself, jive very well with Triela and Hilshire's recent mutinous thoughts and provide an excellent hook for the climax of the series' main narrative thrust.

Lolicon and shotacon have been disambiguated. Links with too little context are being removed - "paedo" is not always a trope, examples where the tropeworthiness is unclear are being removed. Also, please do not use "loli" as a synonym for little girl; see Lolicon And Shotacon as to why not


* What's wrong with [[ShotaCon young boys]]? They could be stronger than the girls if given the same modifications and if they're the same age.

* Come to think of it...didn't Joss Whedon basically make [[{{Dollhouse}} live-action Gunslinger Girl, save for older women and less violence?]]

* There's also the possibility that the Agency wants to reduce the chance that their cyborgs enjoy being violent, since that could possibly lead to the cyborgs behaving with less control in the field. (And heaven forfend that the cyborgs feel tempted to use their weapons outside of work.)

* Personally, as an Italian, I can see the answer as a bit of FridgeLogic, and say it's a mix of three reasons: cultural conditioning makes whoever runs the agency see the young girls as easier to condition and, using an older male, control, and the same cultural conditioning actually makes the control part true (at least for now); young boys are automatically seen as a possible threat, and sometimes ''could actually try and attack older people'' to make a quick buck or prove they could, so the targets would be on their guard if they spot young boys but are likely to ignore a young decently-dressed girl with a violin case until she pulls out the P90; and if the girl gets killed in the mission, there's the propaganda value of making it look like the terrorists are murdering young girls for no reason, that the Italian media would quickly spin up in some horrific tale of kidnappings, rapes and murders.

Between the sixties and the eighties there was a lot of political terrorism in Italy. Then, in the early eighties, it ceased. If the Italian governement ''really'' did deploy cybernetically enchanched tyke bombs against terrorist, the average citizen would be surprised by the technology involved, not by the act.
