What made you assume that? Because she has short hair? She used feminine pronouns the entire time and they never made mention of her biological sex.
Yeah I mean she was gender swamped from her TOS counterpart. But really the beauty of star trek is it really shouldn't matter. She was pilot first that happens to identity as a woman and likes her hair styled that way.
That is what was star trek all about is not about calling out each identity, race and culture in celebration in an after school special kind of way but to normalize all kinds of people being up on that bridge.
What you mean with this? I didn't understand.
I'm assuming they meant "swapped" and not swamped.
Unless gender swamping is a thing now. I can't keep up.
Gender swamping sounds like some kind of agender thing I'm too old to understand and will just nod along with.

That link seems broken for me, it says "bad title"
I can see it.
Weird just search José Tyler that's the character she is based on
Nope, she's clearly a completely different character. Tyler would have been on the crew during "The cage", which takes place before the events of Discovery s2. According to his Memory Alpha entry:
Also, Tyler is listed on Memory Alpha as navigator, Ortegas as senior helmsman. Sure, it's a fan wiki, but Trekkies are sticklers for these things.
I think this is the correct link, for José Tyler: https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Jos%C3%A9_Tyler
Weirdly that link doesn't work for me either 😅 I figured it was just my browser but it didnt work in chrome, firefox, or cromite, so something is fucked up on my end, but I dunno what it is lol
Edit: yeah, something is jank with it on my end, I just opened it via search, the link was the same. I copy pasted it into another tab and that worked fine. And then I put it in a comment in my lemmy client and clicked on the URL and it didnt work just like with yours 🤷🏻♂️ who knows lol
