Answer:

Because female knights would be too weak to hold a heavy sword or to wear an armour.

Answer:

Women were allowed to be knights.

There are many instances of women who were in combat, including one of the wives of Charlemagne, against whom she had fought, and Eleanor of Aquitaine, who lead a company of female warriors in the Second Crusade. A number of orders of knighthood were open to women, including the Knights of the Garter. And there was one order in Aragon that was only open to women who had been in combat.
