I don't like the "Pink Spore" (Rini), but I like Chibi Usa very much. Heh.

One could say that it's hard to tell in the manga, but I go with the information from a source that is most likely to be a reliable one. Takeuchi Naoko was asked about the Haruka's sex at the San Diego Comic Con in August 1998. She answered that question, and she brought up the Starlights:

"Haruka has always been a girl. Always will be. As for the Starlights, in the manga they were always girls. In the anime, however, they got turned into guys, and I wasn't very happy about it."

That's Ms. Takeuchi's answer. Some people can quibble about whether she is actually a reliable source, but it seems to me that such people are simply shifting the goalposts of the question "What should be considered a satisfactory answer?"
