Kate Mulgrew's decision to not have a romance

[teacake]

Yes of ALL people they had to pick Neelix.

Now I could see a scene with her throwing Kim over table and having her way with him. But he wouldn't be talking so much.

[R. Star]

Kim getting raped would just be par for the course. Neelix... he could use some dominating.

[Guy Gardener]

Klingon on heat.

She was of a mind to do someone and Kim was trying to run away.

If Neelix hadn't thrown himself face first on her libido, it's a certainty that she would have raped Harry just like Caretaker did.

[teacake]

There is no way Neelix was a virgin. He frequented space ports.

However he was quite likely a virgin with Kes.

[Nightdiamond]

Funny how Harry flirted with 7 and when she straight up offered him sex, he backed off quickly, lol.

Strange, Harry is always on the verge of getting molested somehow.

Neelix being on the bottom of a dominate Klingon woman determined to have her way-slightly more imaginable.

Klingon women have a lil history of wanting to "rape" weaker males- Riker, Quark, Neelix.....

[teacake]

She didn't really offer him sex, she demanded it. Which freaked him out and engulfed him in performance anxiety. She should have proceeded with her assimilation plans, he would have given it up in the end.

[Nightdiamond]

That scene was probably ever male Treker's dream (possibly a lot of women too)

[teacake]

You mean how he had to do absolutely nothing to have sex?

[R. Star]

Harry Kim is like the dog chasing the car. He looks dumb, has virtually no chance of catching it and if he does, he has no idea what to do with it.

It's really telling that on that episode where they all have nightmares, Kim's is himself getting raped by Seven. Harry Kim is the anti-sex.

[Guy Gardener]

There is no way that the doctor and Janeway didn't each pull Tom and harry aside to say "DON'T FUCK THE BORG!!!"

At that point, she couldn't eat solid food, so you can't convince me that what plumbing she had that was co-opted or removed by the Borg was in any semblance of working order.

It was always ridiculous to ever write her as a sexual being with out solving all her problems as a human being first.

[R. Star]

I honestly would have liked it better if they kept her in that half Borg outfit she wore in the Gift... then they could have various parts able to be removed gradually as something of a slow progression towards her getting her humanity back. But that would have suggested a well thought out plan beyond "Borg babe in catsuit! Let's screw with Harry!"

But as stated on the show she apparently had no issues with her "plumbing" as it were. The Doctor even not so subtly encouraged her to procreate by showing her pictures of 8472 mating. I actually wonder how big a database the Doc has dedicated to alien porn.

[Guy Gardener]

That was much much later own.

The assault on Kim was in week 2 of her life on Voyager.

[teacake]

7 was just trying to fit in. She had figured out the sex thing was a big deal to her species, the species she had been forcibly reinvented as, so she intended to do it. She was like an ex-pat reveling in the shorthand of her native land because she thought that made her human.

[Mr. Laser Beam]

I doubt Seven knows her own strength. She would have probably snapped Harry in half if they'd had sex.

[Guy Gardener]

It was safer for Kim to wait till season seven when he became more padded like a mass of marshmallows and goose feather pillows.
