    Define "Mary Sue".

    That... well, that certainly is one way of looking at it.

    I think they were desperate to try anything to make the show appealing. What they ended up doing is a bunch of different things, but none of it went well. A Jack of all trades, and a master of none type of deal. .Characters that are invisible, people die and come back, promotions of quirky, undisciplined person, and way, way over representation of women in the military. It just gets too hard to believe, and that's when the show loses you.

    That article is speculating.

    The fuck is this nonsense?

    It's the 23rd/32nd centuries, there's billions of people out there, and Starfleet is an equal opportunity employer.

    Starfleet also isn't a modern military (or not a military at all depending on how you're feeling). You can't judge it based on modern militaries.

    All of which has happened in Star Trek before. Seeing a past host comes from DS9, and Reg Barclay was a quirky undisciplined person who got promoted between TNG and Voyager.

    Thanks for another personal attack and zero argument. Do you have an actual argument to make? If not, please remain silent.

    WTF kind of reply is that? I don't see any reason that it would be like that, no matter what century it is.

    So is the Marines, and they are under 10%. And really, how many go into combat?

    He didn't get very high, and he remained fit for duty.

    You made a misogynistic post and got called on it. Perhaps old fashioned views like yours with no place in the modern world should be silenced first, yes?

    Starfleet Marines is a different branch. Different requirements.

    Everyone can read it.
    And now you followed it with a lying post.

    Aren't Star Trek fans better than this? What are you learning when you watch these shows??

    Women in Starfleet is where the show lost you. We really haven't come very far since TOS originally aired, have we?

    I recently watched the episode where Georgio went went through the Guardian of Forever, back to the mirror universe (one of the most over used things in Star Trek). As I watched it, I realized that there were hardly any men in it. They just over due it to the point that you can't ignore it. Where are all the men, I was wondering? Why are they doing this?

    That's not what I said, there have always been women in Starfleet, and I have absolutely no problem with that.
