Chekov got a couple women on the show that were half decent. The total may have even been as high as 3, I don't remember, though ...

You dig Tamoon don't you, 2takes!

Now way, dude ... where'd you get that idea? I'm as straight as a goddamn arrow! And I love how Chekov was shitting a gold brick -- one of the few times a comedic approach actually worked for the character. Tamoon was the first transsexual character in STAR TREK, though, which I guess gives liberal trekkies and whatnot something to boast about.
Where did you get that idea from?
It's evident, is it not?
Only to a blind jackass, apparently. Jane Ross
In any event, I was talking about the character. Voiced by a Man, even.
Not really. I mean. From what I've just read on Memory Alpha she is "deep-voiced", but we don't know her species, let alone what passes as cis for her people. I'm also not sure about her bbeing voiced by a man; Memory Alpha does only list Jane Ross and the credits of the episode don't seem to have a "Voice of Tamoon" entry. I've never seen (or rather heard) Jane Ross in anything other than this episode, so I don't know for sure if that is her regular voice or if she's good at lowering it, or even if there's an uncredited male voice actor.
Whatever gets you through the night, I was just answering a question about a character as I saw it. That's really the extent of my interest in the subject.
I never, not once, believed that Tamoon was voiced by anyone other than the actress who played her, Jane Ross, and in the absence of actual evidence to the contrary, there's literally no reason to suppose otherwise.
A man who is attracted to a trans woman is straight, because she’s a woman and looks and sounds like a woman. Implying otherwise is just incorrect and deeply offensive.
I know a really sexy trans woman I'm absolutely attracted to, doesn't make me question my sexuality!
If only that disinterest in commenting kicked in before you make your classless posts, so much trouble could be averted.
The actor is a woman. It's really her voice. It's a female character through and through. I never thought otherwise. Sheesh.
Okay folks we’re way off the rails here. Let’s bring it back.
And this...
... plus your other posts are deeply offensive. Drop that crap immediately or you’ll get a trolling warning.
I expect to hear no more of this.
Carry on.

Yes, Hengist was, according to legend, a shifty Jute who thought he knew all the Angles and was hired by the Romano-Britons to protect them from invading Picts, but treacherously turned on his employers and invaded Britain himself in an attempt to take over with treachery after treachery and massacre after massacre..
Therefore the name of Mr. Hengist in "Wolf in the Fold" always seemed very appropriate to me. And I noticed that Gildas, in The Ruin of Britain, which includes the first historical account of the Saxon invasions, does mention the Picts attacking like "wolves in the fold".
