His treatment of women has been pretty much the same across the entire series. It was less noticeable because he had them fight other women or gave them more outlandish fights (such as Perona)

This is actually a subject I hope to write a blog about pretty soon. I actually think Oda is making progress in terms of having women in these prominent fighter-commander roles and not just making them the token female who fights Nami, but there seems to be something stopping him from going all the way with them.
