Yeah, that is so funny about Jem. Back in 2004 or so when I wrote in the fandom, the comics hadn't come out yet. I think there was a segment of the fandom that was there because they collected the dolls, and so maybe they brought a more conservative element? Of course homophobia was, without a doubt, worse 17 years ago than it is now too.
