For years, Star Trek canon has underutilized its female heroines. Strong females have always been part of Starfleet missions and their success; however, it’s rare when only females are shown leading the charge to save the day. Starfleet female officers are just as capable as their male counterparts, and creators should feature them in storylines to their fullest potential.
Until series such as “Star Trek: Voyager” and “Star Trek: Discovery” with lead female captains in Janeway and Burnham, Star Trek lore has mostly been a boy's club where the men get all the action to save the crew, lead the mission, or protect an endangered planet. Recently, we have seen female leads like Phillipa Georgiou (Emperor of the Terran Empire), heading a crew of unsanctioned Starfleet Section 31 missions in “Star Trek: Section 31.”
To this point in Star Trek canon there has rarely been an all-female away team, with a few exceptions such as: in “Star Trek: Discovery” S1, E10 where Burnham and Tilly tackle a mission to the Mirror Universe; or in the animated series “Star Trek: Lower Decks” S2, E7 in which Tendi, Mariner and other female Cerritos' officers lead a mission. Star Trek's creator Gene Roddenberry was a visionary who dreamed of a unique diverse futuristic society that had evolved to a recognize true gender equality. It's nice see more current Star Trek creators and writers honoring Roddenberry's legend, in that regard.
