One of my all time favorite comics
had no goddang clue the cat was a preexisting thing from an older trek
they did Orions real good with Lower Decks focusing on their cultural deceitfulness & piractical pretensions while underlining that Tendi did not conform to those racial stereotypes. instead of focusing on green space sex-object like previous appearances of orions have been about
So strange that "just a totally normal person but green" was consistently hypersexualized
Yeah. On the other hand I know a lot of lesbians/Bi/etc for whom Star Trek Space Babes were their first clue something was up. Yeah...definitely not me... :side-eye-1:
SciFi has a long tradition of "controversial thing can be explored somewhat... because it's in space." Your story checks out there.
The leadership of DS9's production was so creepy and misogynistic that Jadzia's character was killed off because she wouldn't fuck the aforementioned creep. :warf-wtf:
That sucks so fucking much holy shit
I didn't like the change but I was sort of glad in a way that they were able to explore the transition from host to host. But they executed it so halfass and so hastily, that it seems like a lot of the episodes were planned for Jadzia - and now I know why, because it was some creep shit that blindsided all the writers and so on.
Yeah, I know allll about "Berman Trek". It's shocking they accomplished what they did.
It was an extension of sexpest adventurism across the planet which amounted to "local people have a slightly different skin color and colonial laws apply differently to them and don't protect them, therefore :awooga: :us-foreign-policy: :hypersus: "
People still behave this way about cat girls, or any kind of anthro animal-person. The concept that they would be lesser minded and that laws would apply differently to them.
Just reminded myself of the /r/socialism drama when they banned catgirls. Glad I wasn't a mod that made that decision.

:my-hero: has had a long standing "haha just kidding... unless" thing going where he talks about his desire for "genetically engineered catgirls for domestic use." :JB-shining-aggro:

I wonder if this ends up in the "violent rhetoric" statistics.
I've said this before to reactionary weebs and other sexpest creeps: "so you want a fusion of cat and human traits. Have you ever seen what cats do when someone touches them when they don't want to be touched?" :knifecat:
Sometimes they get the point at least a little.
I'm not actually sure what cat traits they think would transfer over, if any, outside of ears and tails that can easily be worn as external accessories, no genetic grafting required.
I guess them saying they want people genetically designed to be ignorant and docile wouldn't be as socially acceptable for the time being. :kombucha-disgust:

:jesse-wtf: why? what struggle session could people have over the political implications of anime catgirls?

It's not...they stapled Larry Niven's Kzinti onto TAS for no reason other than someone liked Niven. They don't belong in the universe and I thought they had been rightfully expelled back to where they came from
Lt. M'Ress was present before Niven's actual Kzinti showed up in TAS. She was voiced and partially designed by Majel Barrett herself.

Oh, it's a one-off species called a "felinoid" that never appeared again.
That's actually better. It was going to be worse if they had a Kzinti crew member. I fricken' hate how they did that. I encountered the Kzinti in Starfleet Battles, and was baffled why they were there. I was like, "They're not a Star Trek race!" But then people were like, "Kzinti are cool, what's your problem?" Reruns of TAS weren't on TV and we didn't have the entire archive of old TV on demand like we do now.
She's from Orion? I thought she was a plant.
There's a 40k fan short where a bunch of ig guardsmen are salivating over meeting the hot ambassador from the catgirl planet (canon!) And then the ambassador turns out to be a cat with a human head (not canon, probably).
the 1984 volcel vanguard are preventing me from expressing my thoughts on the mature cat woman on the top right
Do that many people have the zoomer haircut(bottom left)? I see it everywhere in media but hardly irl (not american though)
Yeah for zoomers.
Actually it might be more of a millennial thing
Or neither
There are photos of English kids with undercuts all the way back to the 1920's
I haven't personally seen it in my country or the US when I visit. Maybe it's more common in bigger cities like NYC or LA.
