    Trek on gender: “Don’t care, will smash” – Kirk & Ryker

    PS: Memba when Ryker was captured by a pre-First Contact civ and he had to bribe a nurse with an alien kink with sex in order to escape? Pepperidge Farms remembers.

      I remember that being a little more “coercive and rapey” than bribing, since the nurse was the one who demanded “fuck me and I’ll set you free, or you can wait for whatever they are going to do to you.”

      I get Riker is full of fucks to give, but he didn’t seem terribly pleased with not having a choice.

        I always took his reluctance being about the report he was going to have to make about the incident.

      The soul is willing but the flesh is spongey and bruised!

      Of course I to, I fucking love that episode. I think the Nurse was Lilith from Frasier and the aunt from Jumanji? Questionable consent vibes aside that episode is hilarious and amazing

      *“Will smash, won’t even think about care”

      And even when Wesley momma didn’t want to smooch with the nice parasitic lady it was respectfully addressed.
      (How or why was all that kept quiet in the first place just remained a barely plastered-over plot hole.)
