Did Data watch porno?

Guy Gardener · November 23 2012, 06:34 AM

Listening to his antiseptic explanation about how he xeroxes the musical skills of others whenever some one says after a concert "you're awesome, how did you do that!?" you have to wonder if every motion in repertoire is just a hodgepodge of impersonations?

Then there's sex.

Surely he'd want to observe the masters?

Surely he'd want to know how to have sex in different historical climates for when he's lost in time?

And of course, he would ask his friends if he could watch.

Possibly put up an advert of the ships message board?

I doubt he would "enjoy" porn, but I believe that he would have to watch almost all of it before he believed that he had mastered the subject.

There was one episode, I don't recall if it was Birthright or Descent but he stated he exposed himself to erotic stimuli to elicit an emotional response. Sounded an awful lot like porn to me.

Hmmm ... holodeck porn ...

Yep, he watched porn alright. I do wonder what 24th century porn would look like. Gives a whole new meaning to interracial...

But porn isn't "the masters".

Guy Gardener · November 23 2012, 07:59 AM

And Joe Piscopo isn't a comedian.

In "Descent", Data said that he "...made four attempts to induce sexual desire by subjecting [himself] to erotic imagery."

I am not sure what the distinction is between erotic imagery and porn imagery.

teacake · November 23 2012, 08:37 AM

The classification for TNG.

Porn is when it works.

did he watch "porno?"

This is like that "Family Guy" episode.

Either you say "Data watched a porno" or "Did Data watch porn?" but saying "did Data watch porno?" just sounds weird.

Melakon · November 23 2012, 06:16 PM

Maybe he went to the holodeck and ran the Vulcan Love Slave program.

T J · November 23 2012, 06:16 PM

*fake euro accent* Data totally watched that guy have sex on that woman! *fake euro accent*

T'Girl · November 23 2012, 08:37 PM

More important, does Data appear in any porn?

Perhaps one of Tasha Yars's disgruntled underlings surreptitiously place a multispectrum image scan in her quarters.

Melakon · November 23 2012, 08:45 PM

Not exactly, but buried in the Starfleet Medical Library exists a video research study he appears in called "Making Yourself Fully Functional".

Guy Gardener · November 24 2012, 12:48 AM

I could see Lore doing porn just to piss Data off.

Meanwhile since Tasha was head of security, it would be she who has the ultimate say so on whose bedrooms are kept constantly recorded and who is not a threat.
