Nope. Women were not equal in TOS. Women were specifically barred from being starship captains. The final episode of the series, Turnabout Intruder, deals with this.

I did not know this. Is that the one where they somehow switched Kirks mind with this chick and then she went to the enterprise to be captain in Kirks body?

That's the episode.
I believe Roddenberry later regretted showing Star Fleet captains as men only, especially since the first officer in the original, rejected Star Trek pilot was a woman.
