I think that's why I always enjoy The Ultimate Computer when it pops up in TOS rewatches. Dr. Daystrom is treated as just another person, brilliant and flawed alike.
I think Trek did, and still does, have a sexism problem though. Even "should have known better" TNG writers did. Guess which two main cast members had sword training but were demoted to breaking pots over guards' heads in Qpid?

Yeah, that is cool. And I'm definitely not arguing Trek was perfect, just that it did good things in that regard.
