My take is a bit different. Hypothetically if Kamijo Touma were a female, then aside from the bit about him entering Mikoto's room, every single line of dialogue and inner thought used during the bridge scene would have stayed the same. The gender of the hero is irrelevant. If Mikoto had instead specifically implied the person rescuing her was male then you would have an argument. Calling Mikoto the damsel in distress is fitting but calling her a "poor weak girl who couldn't protect herself" would require you to ignore the past 10 or so episodes and throw away any of the context that has been established.
