Except she's not a telepath. But you're saying he would be very perceptive... Yes... *starts imagining*
I hadn't thought of that.
 
Makes some dumb hick who probably only has sex with farm animals seem like a step down. ;)

:guffaw:

Yes.

I suppose it's not strictly "canon", but in the Trek novels it's clear that although Amanda isn't telepathic, she and Sarek share the mind link. He's the conduit, but he perceives her feelings, and she his, if they want each other to do so. Not all bonded couples would necessarily share their deepest intimate and erotic feelings...but they certainly many couples could and some assuredly do...certainly adds an interesting dimension/possibilitiesto Vulcan sex life.

No wonder they are so private and not given to public display, even accounting for Vulcan logic and traditional reserve, they don't need the physical contact of humans to show affection to their partners - they can do so with their (erm) minds.:techman: And all protestations to the contrary, I believe Vulcans often do love their spouses. Sarek certainly loves Amanda.

We've all seen the two-fingered touch between Vulcan couples (including Amanda & Sarek). It could convey a wide range - the equivalent to a peck on the check, to I'm so glad to see you my dear, to I'm hot to have you.

Ladies, all that managed and mastered and supressed emotion has to go SOMEWHERE...and not just during pon farr.
 
It also occurs to me that some humans have developed their intuitive abilities and are highy sensitive( or were more gifted that way naturally). Certainly extremely few have anything remotely similar to type of control and power a Vulcan would (maybe a few Tibetan Lamas, shamans etc.?), but there is a spectrum, so it might not be out of the question that Uhura could be receptive. She did seem pretty tuned into Spock empathetically- or maybe that came from compassion.. In any case, a type of Vulcan bonding scene could be so incredibly moving if done right and at the right time.
 
Think of being able to feel what your partner feels, and vice versa, physical sensations as well as thoughts, through a mind link during...you know.
 
oh wow- now that you put it that way..:eek: That would be an intense and amazing experience... Your nervous system might not be able to take it more than once in awhile. Probably take some type of meditative discipline to work up to it. And you'd certainly have to choose your partner with the utmost care!

That is certainly an , ahem, "entertaining" concept to consider. Ok, it's super hot. :lol: thanks

You can be a mature woman in the company of younger men. Some of them are even somewhat mature. :lol: And don't deny yourself younger men. It's flattering, really, when they're into you - for the same reason we may prefer older men: experience... and again, maturity. It works both ways.


Yeah, but it does get kind of weird when a guy 21-years younger hits on you, especially when you see women his age falling all over him. It's flattering, but still, it's hard not to think "I could have been changing his diapers!"

Then again, there's something to be said for a man who hasn't gotten jaded and set in his ways yet.

My husband's 13 years younger than I; we met when he was 21 and I 34. We've been together 22 years, yacking like magpies the whole time.

Darling- I'm 34 and you just became my hero. Considering the day I've had, you have no idea how happy that makes me.

Jeri - you go girl!!

One of my best friends, just getting ready to turn 40, is married to a 27 year old. They have a wonderful child and a wonderful relationship.

One of my other dear friends was married 23 years to a man 40 years her senior.

Both are/were great marriages. I guess it's about the individuals - so congrats on finding the right guy and 22 happy years.
 
I said younger men, not little boys. :p


I'm not taking the bait! :p

"Little boys" means under 21. I'm 26, so I'm cool with certain actors who happen to be three years younger *winkwink*. I had a bf once who was 17 years older, and one who was 4 years younger (though that didn't last very long).
 
Oh, and look who just photo bombed Captain Kirk.

But don't kid yourself: lots of men never grow up. So if your guy has to be immature, you might as well take a young one.
I'm gonna print this, frame it and hang it somewhere :lol:

Trying desperately to get back on the topic...I've just seen another TOS episode, "The Cloud Minders". This one I remembered well, even after 20 years. How could you forget Spock hitting on a woman and mentionning Pon Farr to her! :eek:
He's already attractive when he's not trying so when he's trying, he's lethal :drool:
Oh my. I really need to watch TOS again.
And he's not under the influence of alien spores, of time regression or playing spy. He's himself, that's what makes it really hot.
I've just finished watching the whole show and as the series progresses, it's obvious that Spock has a less tight leash on his control, probably because he's at ease with his friends, Kirk and McCoy. There's an episode at the very end where a clone of Surak remarks on his "emotionality" and Spocks has to apologize for having shown an emotional reaction.

Having already come out for Spock and Vulcans in general - Sarek/Lenard, Spock/Nimoy and Spock/Quinto - I feel I must point out that no one has really commented on the fact the Vulcans are touch telepaths. The brain is the most erotic organ we have, and the Vulcan bonding ritual bonds a couples minds...you would get instant feedback/sharing from your Vulcan partner during intimacy and the implications, even for the mindblind....are (ahem)...fascinating.
Lucky Uhura.
Oh yes, lucky girl! :D
It was kinda obvious to me so I don't think I've ever commented on it.
I've always supposed that after a Vulcan bonding ritual, the two partners could communicate telepathically even without touching, but I'm probably wrong.
In any case, as both Amanda and Uhura aren't Vulcan, maybe it can happen only when Sarek and Spock touch them. You have to be very certain, to know of the other's love for you when you are with a Vulcan because it's not often obvious, you know? If a mental link of some sort can be created (and the mind meld work both ways when Spock is doing it: he reads the person thoughts and if he wishes so, the person can read his), then Amanda and Uhura would know that no matter what, they are loved.
I don't know about you, but I had the impression watching the movie that Uhura sometimes knew exactly how Spock felt and that there was more to it than just knowing your lover. If they mind melded at some point, she would.
I think ShimmeringFacet said something like that a few posts ago.

Wow, congrats!
I'm off to Wales and Ireland for 2 weeks, I'll see if I can find myself some young and handsome brits there ;)
 
Have people tired of discussing the deliciousness of certain Enterprise males?* Here's a question for thought (though related, so I hope I'm not going off-topic):

In which scenes do you find Kirk and Spock (and Bones and Pike and whoever else does it for you) to be at their sexiest best?

In my humble opinion, Spock is sexiest on the transporter with Nyota. His body language (hand around her hip, touching foreheads, looking down at her, slightly possessive and protective) and the soft tone in his voice as he promises to return. And the way he says her name... :adore:

I heart Kirk when he springs from the platform to save Sulu. Maybe not the same as a sexy moment, but I love him for taking that risk to save his fellow officer.

* I asked this not because of the discussion in the posts above mine, but because this thread was on page 3. Just wanted to make it clear I wasn't trying to derail you guys. :)

Kirk is at his heroic best leaping off the platform. He is to love there. :) I also like him when he's dressed in the black tunic and pants, in conference with the officers, when Chekov first calls him Captain Kirk, Captain Kirk! Kirk is beginning to look and sound seriously commanding at that point.

I like him after Spock lets him loose from the mind meld, where his eyes, face and lips are all swollen from grief and sorrow. I like him when they are all looking around at each other after they escape the gravity well at the end. His smile is the one I've seen on his grandmother's face on the cover of Look magazine. She was one of the top five Hollywood pinup girls of WWII. They have beautiful smiles.
 
Kirk: Definitely the early morning shot of him riding on his motorcycle! Yum.

Spock: There's a few that come to mind. I love the romance of the transporter scene as well. And some of his scenes on Vulcan. I loved what he was wearing- perhaps the one with Amanda?
 
Oh oh, I love the scene with Spock and Amanda too! So sweet with his mom. I giggle when Amanda says, "Spock, come here, let me see you" and Spock, offscreen, replies "...No." Ha ha! Seems somewhat petulant, like, "Gosh, Mom, I'm all grown-up now, don't you know?" Really cute.
