Thanks I knew the actor had a wife but I didnt realise they addressed the characters sexuality in the show
Spoilers On Seven and sexuality
- Thread starter rfmcdpei
- Start date
You know Stamets and Culber might be Bi or maybe they were just that in the mirror universe since they were having sex with mirror Georgiou. Of course this has been a question since Kira ended up being gay in the mirror universe. Does it make sense for the same person have different orientations in a different universe were they are exactly the same except different memories because of lives lived differently.

She's a lezza. Deal with it.
The Intendant in the Mirror Universe was bisexual, wasn't she? She seemed to like handsome men tending to her needs as much as she did attractive women.
It's possible but in theory regular Kira would also have to be. Which I actually could see being possible. Kira seems like someone who is not always comfortable with herself. She feels a lot of shame and guilt from the violence she had to do plus she basically lived a life as a child soldier with no schooling so it's amazing she is even decent at interpersonal skills.

The miiror universe characters have this awful habit of displaying sexual openness as a deviant trait. Its all sex and leather with the mirror people as if thats something dirty and evil
It's truly an odd place when more representation draws ire from the group being represented.
As odd as it sounds, I don't care about characters or their sexuality. If Star Trek just did the action/adventure thing without the sex thing I would be happy about it. I have enough relationship and sexual drama in my real life.

So you give an answer. Many people actually don't want to see on screen something that they have enough in real life.It's truly an odd place when more representation draws ire from the group being represented.

I suppose that's fair. I just don't complain about it when it pops up in my media either.
Too much
This whole topic is so ten years ago. If Picard was supposed to be as progressive as TOS was relative to its time, they'd have had to put a couple of trans people on the crew.
Come to think of it, one of those prerelease leaks claimed that Jurati was going to be trans. IIRC that was the same leak which claimed that Rios would be killed in the finale, leaving Cabrera to play just holograms in season 2.

Maybe she is. How would you know?
Incessant reiteration says otherwise.
Seeing you want the folks removed from sight, it's obvious their presence has you complaining.
You keep saying your gay as though it absolves your stance as being homophobic saying you want them gone from sight.
No, she wouldln't.
Despite both being named Kira Nerys, the two are completely different people. There's no reason the Intendant being bi would have to mean regular Kira is.

I always saw it more as kinky and eventually high camp. The first DS9 mirror episode is actually a good solid episode will real emotional stakes. The rest are kind of cartoonish campy pew pew stuff your not suppose to take all that serious. Well I think the Alternate Bareil might have them trying to sort of return to the first one and do a real episode but the 3,4 and season 7 one was the pure camp escapism.

Television is a devious trick to make you buy things that you do not need.
Representation endears you to television which weakens your resistance to ads about frilly coffee and blue jeans.
Stick enough fictional gays on the box, and the real gays out there will be helpless.
There is a lot of pink cash floating about, and a lot of skeevy people are willing to pay the Picard producers to make many, many, many actors pretend that they are gay for a little bit, to get it.
All bear income will be mine.
How many gays do there have to be on television until the coffee and bluejeans people have all their homosexual money?
The problem is, if you get all the gay money, then conversely, you've lost all the conservative religious money, which is more.
Soooooo much more.
So enough gays to please the gays without repelling the bible thumpers.
Sigh?
15 gays per show?
My math is perfect.

David Mack says Detmer's bi according to her character profile. I'm pretty sure she was with a woman in the S1 party time-loop episode although I'm not sure they did anything obvious.
I think there was a blooper roll where she is making out with Ash.
An acknowledgement (as if one is needed in 2020) ... or a huge flashing billboard with sirens blaring and spotlights pointed to it? Discovery and Picard are doing the latter.
You're comparing Keiko with a member of the senior staff ? Really?
None of them were members of the main crew of a series. A crew of what, 6 or 7?
People keep thinking I cry myself to sleep at night about this or it angers me in any way whatsoever. I suppose it makes it easier to dismiss criticisms if you imagine I'm like that. I genuinely just find it pathetic and cringeworthy, that's all.
Oh please. How childish. I find the cast of Discovery unlikeable in pretty much their entirety, I'd quite happily see the lot of them replaced with a more charming cast, like on Picard, but nowhere have I spoke of any homophobia. I just find the showrunners obsession with sledgehammering in as much SJW politics as possible, tiresome.
