They were not given roles traditionally filled by men, men could not even type in the 60s. It was seen as beneath them

They were. These were men’s roles, that men were doing, in the Navy, in the 1960’s.

It was seen as oh look they still have a woman answering the phone even in the future.

No, it wasn’t, except by you lmao. You are projecting here.

Most of the people who watched the show weren’t in the Navy and weren’t drawing those kinds of parallels.

They absolutely were drawing those parallels. Everybody in the 1960’s was fully aware that women weren’t allowed posts like that on naval ships. It would have been implicitly understood by literally everyone that women being allowed these roles on a ship in the future was a progressive idea. The fact that women were allowed permanent posts on a combat vessel at all was a novel idea at the time, much less a woman serving as a commissioned officer on the bridge of the vessel.

Would you also reduce O’Brien from TNG to an “Elevator operator”, or are these reductions of yours reserved for women only?
