Started watching it on Pluto and only in the first season but I’m liking it. I’ve seen random episodes here and there and my dad rented the movie once it was available at blockbuster. Plus it’s cool to see a show with Air Force members as an Air Force vet. I assume since it ended before the woke era there aren’t any major girlboss moments.

Not in the "traditional" sense that is now woke writing but there are a few moments it borders for better or worse. Carter's line in the pilot about her reproductive organs being on the inside rather than out for example however even the show ends up highlighting how much of a dumb thing that is to say.
Closest the show ends up are a few episodes dealing with the various primitive societies that are a staple feature of the show's exploration. There's a very early episode where SG-1 encounter a group of Mongols lead by Shang Tsung from the OG Mortal Kombat movie and women there are very much property for that tribe until Carter stages some emancipation type thing but as is the case with almost every new planet it never gets brought up again past the episode in question.
And regarding some spoilers for later seasons there is a female led faction of a particular group who try to lean on the "wammen stronk" line a bit much which gets a bit boring fast.
Thanks. Although pre woke era women power themes weren’t nearly as obnoxious as today.
Question for you, was the reproductive organs comment in the episode you saw? I think I read it was removed from some versions because it was considered that cringe by the writers later on.
Honestly might have been but I don’t remember
It's that insignificant to the whole thing, which is also likely why it was removed, that any edits made to remove it would be missed unless you have prior knowledge the line is coming.
Other question; were there tits in the pilot? Because that's removed from some versions too 👀
