"I can't get used to having a woman on the bridge"

Not really interested in debating anything, but for the record, all these performers' 'sexualized' careers took off in 1999, two years before the GW Bush administration.

 

Under a conservative Democrat in the White House and a Republican Congress, yes.

 

Thats what we're all about here.

But generally women go around today wearing short skirts, conservative dresses, skin-tight outfits, whatever and no-one raises an eyebrow if the outfit is appropriate for the situation.
If there were more women in TOS were doing what Number-One was doing - taking charge, kicking butts, taking names then we wouldn't care what they were wearing.
There were too many frightened/infatuated female yeomen compared to the Marta's, Number One's and female Romulan Commanders

 

Headcanon: A "wuh-mann" is a specific kind of near-human alien that grows facial spines and dark hair, during their planets winter, which is what happened with Yeoman J-M- C'olt. Una completely misunderstood Pike when he used that expression, and he was vague in explaining it.

 

Or then it's a term for a more generic shape-shifter, and the range of C'olt, with that spikes thing and all, is greater than with Una, who can merely alter her hair color, rank and backstory.
