This is completely headcanon territory. Which is fine, but presenting it like it is somehow accepted fact is a little ridiculous.
Tasha is a tough woman from a violent and lawless world who became the security officer on the enterprise after the federation helped her get away from there (not very fleshed out that part, iirc). Eventually, through some time travel weirdness she was taken prisoner by the romulans in the past and became romantically involved with one of them, leading to the birth of Sela (and her offscreen execution brought on by her attempt to flee with her daughter).
I’m not really sure where you get that she is somehow not a bog standard woman in that. Is it the short hair? If yes then that seems a little sexist in itself.
Either way, they don’t care that much about that stuff in the future, as you say. So why would Tasha even identify as anything else, when it is perfectly accepted to be just however you are anyway?
It was more a comment about that style of coupling happening a lot in real life. You’re really taking a throw away comment far too earnestly as an attack on her identity.
A non-binary masc fem person sleeping with an autistic character?..
… totally plausible.
What now?
Tasha is a woman
Maybe… Maybe some of the “male” crew wore miniskirts and they just don’t worry that much about that stuff in the future.
