So according to former Power Rangers Producer/Writer/Story Editor Jackie Marchand, there has been one homosexual CHARACTER (not actor, but their in-show character) that she can confirm that was written on the show.
HAYLEY, the Dino Thunder rangers technical advisor, was written (in a "child friendly" way) at the end of Dino Thunder. Doug Sloan had suggested during the writing of the finale about making Hayley a lesbian and the staff did agree to it and did so, but with enough subtext so that disney wouldn't have objected to it (she "went back east with an old girlfriend of hers" to go back to college or something of the like according to Jackie). Disney didn't object and they managed to fly under the radar, but the scene ultimately ended up being cut from the episode due to time.
