People don't seem to catch on to the fact that this isn't something that is "going to change." It already is changing. Steven Universe has gay main characters. Clarence has had gay characters and one of the main characters' parents are gay. There was the thing with Korrasami and Adventure Time seems to be itching closer to revealing how gay it's been all along. And these series aren't dying or getting a lot of controversy for it, either (with exceptions, Korra did bring that out just at the very end).

Granted, this is mostly CN I'm talking about, Disney and Nick seem less willing to do things like that. But it's no longer some distant far-off idea that one day we may see gay characters in shows aimed at kids. It's already a thing.

Will it happen in Power Rangers? Who knows, but it's definitely not something they "can't" do.
