What male dominant crew? Even on the bridge there were females all over the place besides Uhura.
Deja vu. |
And Uhura is actually an important character in ST09 rather than eye candy/glorified extra. |
Uhura seems to have a large and important part in "Into Darkness", too. And, Carol Marcus is an important character.
There were a lot of strong women characters in TOS, too. Aliens and otherwise. Lest we forget, the original First Officer of the Enterprise was cast as a woman, Number One. However, the future had to fit the present, and a woman first officer didn't fit into 1960s TV-viewing sensibilities.
