HUGE Mr Sulu Spoiler

Ok, as far as I know TAS isn't part of canon.. is his daughter mentioned in any of the real shows?

And yes, the fact that he has a daughter makes the chance of him being gay far less.
TAS is as canon as the rest

And the way they’re going to do it …

TrekMovie: Wait! I don’t want spoilers.

JH: No, it’s not a thing at all. From what I was told before, they dock at a station, and Sulu goes, and his partner is there, and his daughter is there.

TM: Husband, I assume.

JH: And the daughter goes, “Daddy!” and he goes “Demora!” and there’s a guy there, and maybe they hug. I don’t know, it’s a two-second thing. Which is perfect.
 
Can you back up the fact that TAS is canon? Has anyone said it is? As opposed to Gene Roddenberry publicly saying it is not?
 
Yeah, he has a daughter

Wait, Chekov and Scotty can be gay and have prior relationships with a woman, but Sulu, who's never been shown to have one, can't?
What episode is that where McCoy's daughter is mentioned?
I don't really care if TAS showed Sulu expressing interest in a magic woman. It's not even in the same universe as the Kelvin Sulu anyways.
 
Well then case closed. If TAS is any indication on anything.

As you can see in the movie, Sulu wants to make out with the woman, but when she turns into a strong masculine man he backs off.


Thank you Nerys for helping me prove my point.

From the wiki
On June 27, 2007, Star Trek's official site incorporated information from The Animated Series into its library section,[clarifying, finally, that the animated series is part of theStar Trek canon. Both David Gerrold and D.C. Fontana have stated that the animated series is essentially the fourth season that fans wanted originally.[

How do you know that person is not a transvestite? :shifty:
 
Pegg has said that Prime Sulu is straight and Kelvin Sulu is gay, so this seems like a non issue.

I dunno. Looks like he conjured a cocktail waitress. Maybe he wanted to place an order.
 
Denial can be pure ignorance too, it's wrong to say it's only because of homophobia. Many gay people married and got a family because they simply weren't aware of themselves until too late.

Apocryphal, but I run in circles where I meet many guys like this, because I'm one of them. I've been to discussion groups with them and we share stories. If it ain't directly because of homophobia that they came out late, then it was indirectly because of homophobia that they were in ignorance.
