I don't think it did. If I remember right, the only women with speaking parts are Uhura, Kirk and Spock's respective moms and a green alien girl Kirk's boinking. Uhura and Green Alien Girl talk, but guess what about? It's a fun movie anyway. I figure they're stuck with the original characters at the moment, and hopefully they'll do what they can to remedy it in sequels.
No, wait, I remember! There was a moment where they're calling out ship assignments, and Uhura gets her from another woman. There. It passes.

Well, no, it doesn't. But I'm grandfathering it in (the verb is used advisedly) because, well, Star Trek.

I could find it in my heart to wish that the creators had entered the 21st century enough to put in a little girl-talk, too. Or is the fact they didn't seem to see the need to what is meant by "Post-Feminist" (she said snarkily)?
