I've long heard the story of Harry Kim being the original character on the chopping block. If Seven HAD been male, would he have worn a skin tight costume too?
Based on the general reaction to Decker's money shot, I'd guess no...

Torn in half?
She turned into a literal cyborg Scorpion.
And the only way that Picard and Seven being so in each others junk is about Brannon, is that not so deep down, Branon considers himself (as the writer for all those decades) the real Jean-Luc Picard.
Yeah, Brannon definitely thinks that he is Data.
Did kids watch TV because of what's in the TV looks like what's in their toychest, or did they play with toys because what's in their toychest looks like what's in the TV?
Deep Space Nine toys may have existed, but if those collectibles had ever accidentally made their way into a TOYS'R'US, something must have gone terribly wrong with the Universe.
He watched ds9 when he was tiny, and the odd video on YouTube with starship battles. There are episodes suitable for kids, and he knows a galor class from a nebula class lol. He's not going to watch much of season 7 now he's big enough to understand what's going on though. Changeling transformation is referred to as Odo beans. But we are digressing. There's a thread in general about Trekkie parenting.Have you tried to explain the relationship between those toys and your DVDs yet?
The best part is that children will love it, the way they love Chewbacca.
My 9yo and I play Star Trek Attack Wing with a mostly DS9 set of ships. And yes, he knows the series quite well. He just loves Science Fiction.Did kids watch TV because of what's in the TV looks like what's in their toychest, or did they play with toys because what's in their toychest looks like what's in the TV?

I'd love to see a new Dax in the new series. Having all the memories of Curzon, Jadzia and Ezri along with a few post Ezri hosts would be a great way to incorporate the past into the present.
Keiko was never going to be a regular. They asked Rosalind Chao before the series started but she declined to be a main character. Of all the possible choices she probably would have worked best as a replacement for Jadzia but by Season 7 Keiko was largely irrelevant as a character.
Now you start me thinking, Dax character being regenerated and the symbiont changing hosts. This might be fun.
In order to solve the matter with the female dogs once and for all, one of the Dax hosts can be an Antican. Some clever doctor, no other hosts around, technobabble a la Voyager and voila. It can be a female Antican in Starfleet uniform so that each frustrated feminist can see her dreams come true. It can also be a black female Antican holding her own against white male Anticans and humans and this will appeal to the color-sensitive campaigners. That way the film producers can fill in two quotas – the racial and the feminist one.
At the same time, the male audience will be able to call the creature “stupid female dog” without being charged with misogyny.
The creature will be totally unattractive in human terms because actresses like Jeri Ryan and Terry Farrell were too sexy and the average obese couch potato felt depressed. Women are put under pressure because they can’t look like that and men simply can’t afford such women. No sex, please, we are Starfleet. Ezri had sex with Worf and Bashir, in fact characters who have sex die. You know the trope.
The best part is that children will love it, the way they love Chewbacca.
A touch of hyperbole I grant you, but while I have extreme distaste for the modern brand of third wave feminism, and it's misandrist tendencies, I also have extreme distaste for the misogyny that rears opposite it.
Also, the noisy, political, unpleasant Anita Sarkesian types of feminism just didn't exist in the 90s the way they do now, the internet didn't have the pressure it does now, and there's no reason consideration of such pressures would have had any bearing on the show.
Am not going to participate anybfurther in the thread, because its hypocritical to complain about one side of the argument whilst behaving like the worst examples of its opposite.
Where did you read this?I read that the reason Ezri Dax was added to the cast was because it was out of the question for Kira to be the only female regular.
Female dogs? Really? Yeah, that'd still be misogynistic no matter how you try to be cute about it.
