Aiight, I'm gonna do these in bullet points:

Yes, you did. I hate to break it to you, but taking one part of the sentence, leaving out the part you didn't like, and acting as if I were agreeing with you is changing what I was trying to convey. I meant that it's fine if other shows targeted towards children want to have an all-male or all-female team, but I don't think it's right for Super Sentai.
I already stated my personal reason for preferring a team with both sexes, but I will reiterate it for you. I personally think that this allows for more variety within the cast. Something that's nice to have in a franchise with a lot of repeating archetypes.
I don't see how Goranger lacking a giant punching robot is at all relevant to this discussion, seeing as how I never said I was against every kind of change to the formula. Besides, they still have plenty of vehicles to suit my fancy.
Since you seem so adamant about mentioning the new Ghostbusters and the female Thor, I'll tell you what I honestly think of them. They are shameless attempts by their companies to cater to this new wave of media-focused feminism. Speaking as somebody who is a Ghostbusters fan, I really wasn't fond of this attempt to "diversify" Ghostbusters. Particularly when it was done a lot better in "Extreme Ghostbusters" back in 1997.
