Ender's Game isn't really any more or less sexist and homophobic than just about any other piece of media. (By that I mean, if you look for it it's there but it's not any worse than like Supernatural or something.) Two of the main characters are competent, intelligent girls. iirc there's some homophobic teasing at some points, but it's treated as a negative thing and it fits with the general 'young boys being bullies' theme.

The girls=nurturing boys=violent comes up throughout the book, as it's used to explain both why Ender is unique and the relationship between the siblings.
