But now with the last two chapters this is more a story about battling sexist perceptions and stereotypes. It's weird to see a future that has regressed with regards to that, but then it's easy to just look at what's happening across the world today and see it's not impossible to happen.
I was thinking the same, but it makes sense. The reason we easily assume future civilisations must be more tolerant, is because most people making and consuming science fiction tend to be progressive, this creates the expectation that as civilisations improve technologically, they also improve socially.
But unfortunately that's not the case, you could still have an oppressive society figure out space travel.
