"You can't have a woman flying a man's ship", which was not the attitude of the guy who wrote the episode and not an attitude Nichols thought was acceptable This was Gene's problem

That’s certainly fair. And disgusting. I wasn’t aware of that. I still stand by the overall tone and writing of the show being a lot more ahead of its time than most concurrent media. I don’t consider Gene a hero but the many elements ST (TNG mainly) brought as progressive.
