What? How is saying that they look female cissexism?

Cissexism refers to the hate, prejudice, and fear (syn. Transphobia) of trans individuals. The Crystal Gems aren't transgender, they don't even have a gender.

The proper term you're looking for is stereotyping. In which, you categorize something just by simple observation. And stereotyping isn't always bad, as females actually try to look more feminine to be categorized as girls, alternativley, so do males as boys.

Appearance is a primary indicator of one's sex in many organisms, humans aren't an exception. Male and female bodies are the same in many ways yet different in others. Our bodies are different from the other gender because they were molded by time and evolution to do different tasks. One example is the breasts, females have more pronounced breasts because they were task to feed the young with the mammary glands found in them.

And actually, if you actually did a little searching and not so quick to judge, you'd find out that the gems have 50/50 percent chance of using either gender pronouns but use female pronouns because it is arbritrary as it is easy.
