/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

Didn’t they start off, canonically, as 100% either slaves or thieves?

Just a quick fix on the pronunciation of the name, it's RICK FUCKING BERMAN

Absolutely right. Mea culpa.

I had no idea what Star Trek: Theurgy is, so I googled it and went to their main Web site. Now I have even less of an idea what Star Trek: Theurgy is.

Same. I found the image in an image search, and it came up. I think it's a fan fiction erotica thing.

This isn't helping my argument, but at least it's equal representation. Baby steps.

I think we can all agree, an Orion wants to take you down? You say yes

Im honestly just confused by this meme, and the general hatred for any kind of sexualized woman on the show.

Yes I get it, subverting expectations, but at this point a sexualized woman would be subverting the expectation of the inevitably smart and tough, anything but traditionally female, female characters in my opinion.

It also ignores the fact that some of those evil sexualizations were at that time very liberating and progressive for women, like the skirts in TOS.

Can’t we stay sex positive please, regardless of gender?
