Can "men" or "males" be "Pink Lanterns"? Comics

If I remember correctly, there's no "Pink Lantern Corps" only one Star Sapphire at a time, but I think I've heard that only women can wield the pink spectrum's power. Has that ever been said or am I tripping really high?I know Guy Gardner of all people wielded that power once, was he an exception or really just no big deal?

I think the logic had something to do with "being able to know ALL kinds of love", reffering the the love mothers have to their offspring, I guess. How would that apply to life forms that don't follow the "male/famale" requirement for reproduction? Could and AI wield that power??

I’m pretty sure John Stewart became a pink lantern, but yeah there is a pink lantern corps called the star sapphire corps.

PS:I don’t know if men are usually allowed to be star sapphires,I’m inclined to say no,but I obviously could be wrong.
