I see what you mean, however it's just a way for them to cope with their boredom while waiting for new episodes I guess. Personally, I'm intrigued to see if the show will ever introduce a "gem" that identifies with the male pronouns, even though they're all genderless. Time for a stupid question, are they genderless? I've seen every episode and I know they're all modeled after a matriarch, which kind of implies a female gender. Yeah, gems are genderless as stated in the official guide books. They just chose the feminine appearances and pronouns (even though it's implied that they don't reproduce like humans do) but they still are projections of their own gems' chemicals and energy. When the gems break, their holograms disappear and they need a while to recover. Some gems (specially the corrupted, monsters) may never recover, so Garnet and the other Crystal Gems conserve them into bubbles until they'll find a way to heal them and restore them into normal gems. I figure the writers thought it would be simple to give them a pronoun other than "it" or "they", otherwise the gems would sound like machines, or robots. The Crystal Gems we know are more "human" than the ones introduced on the Home World, because they have emotions and they are autonomous.
