This every-seven-years business was taken too literally by too many people who don't stop and understand.
She was rather before her time in describing fandom.Fontana describes many Trek fans to perfection in that single sentence. There’s no room for interpretation or creative thought.
Again, I am quotingSpock. He mentioned salmon. Salmon like Vulcan returns "home" to reproduce. The ponn farr and Plak Tow are about reproduction. Spock wouldn't make the comparison if it wasn't accurate.you should really look at your own post again:

They express affection in different waysEverything on screen suggests they're extremely distant, don't cuddle, don't kiss, don't make compliments, so why would they have sex for fun?
Vulcans experience attraction (want).SPOCK: Logical. Flawlessly logical.
T'PRING: I am honoured.
Though I guess they might like each other for their minds. There was also Stonn, who wanted very much to be my consort, and I wanted him
TUCKER: Another day at least. I guess we should talk about what happened last night.
T'POL: I've been briefed on the situation.
TUCKER: Well, I was referring to what happened between us, in your quarters. I guess I'll go first. Actually, why don't you go first?
T'POL: I suppose I should thank you.
TUCKER: No need to thank me.
T'POL: For facilitating my exploration of human sexuality.
TUCKER: I'm not sure I follow.
T'POL: It's one of the many aspects of your species which I've been meaning to explore since I left the High Command
conveniently ignoring counterarguments, aren't weDon’t care.
show your evidence that he does.Seems Spock is perfectly able to bang, Ponn Farr or not, if he’s interested. See: “The Cloud Minders”, “All Our Yesterdays”
yes, cause TNG doorlabels and LCARS in-jokes should not have the same weight as spoken wordsSpoken words?
As opposed to? Written words?
show your evidence that he does.
in your own words: I'm not sure salmon do anything for recreation, including sex.Again, I am quotingSpock. He mentioned salmon. Salmon like Vulcan returns "home" to reproduce. The ponn farr and Plak Tow are about reproduction. Spock wouldn't make the comparison if it wasn't accurate.

As for sex out side of the seven year cycle
what is?I think this is whataboutery, @NCC-73515
You won’t see Vulcans engaging in coitus in TOS, at best we may get implied mating among humans.
Does Saavik count? She wasn’t in her cycle in ST:SFS
since it was never stated that they don't, that's actual whataboutism right here, cause it's not connected to our discussion, which involved real quotes from the episodes (on one side) and from behind-the-scenes interviews (on the other).I’ve never seen Spock take a shit, so it must mean Vulcans don’t poop.
and how did she react? why would you think quark wanting someone has anything to do with that someone wanting to have sex with him? XD"... and by the way, I'd love to melt that cold Vulcan heart of yours."
– Quark, 2370 ("The Maquis, Part I")
Speaking to the Vulcan female Sakonna, who assuredly wasn’t in Pon Farr when Quark made his remark.

sex is not mentioned in any of them. the primitive emotions due to time travel have been addressed already.The absolute beauty of not giving two fucks about canon, you can go with what makes sense. But you should really rewatch those episodes.

spock was, she had to help him. obviously. XD

COMMANDER: You have nothing in Starfleet to which to return. I offer, we offer you an alternative. We will find a place for you, if you wish it.
SPOCK: A place?
COMMANDER: With me. Romulan women are not like Vulcan females. We are not dedicated to pure logic and the sterility of non-emotion. Our people are warriors. Often savage. But we are also many other pleasant things.
SPOCK: I was not aware of that aspect of Romulan society.
COMMANDER: As a Vulcan, you would study it. As a human you would find ways to appreciate it.
SPOCK: Please believe me. I do appreciate it.
COMMANDER: I am so glad. Now one final step to make the occasion complete. You will lead a small party of Romulans aboard the Enterprise, and there you will take your rightful place as its commander. And you will lead the ship to a Romulan port, with my flagship at its side.
SPOCK: Yes, of course, but not just this moment. An hour from now will do even better. Would it not, Commander?
COMMANDER: Yes. Yes, it will, Mister Spock. You do know I have a first name.
SPOCK: I was beginning to wonder.
COMMANDER: Well, I do. Would you like to hear it?
(She whispers in his ear.)
SPOCK: How rare, and how beautiful. But so incongruous when spoken by a soldier.
COMMANDER: If you will give me a moment, the soldier will transform herself into a woman.
(She leaves the room.)
It’s just going to move the goalposts again, because we didn’t see them doing down dog, or they didn’t f*ck and tell.I wonder what Spock and the Romulan Commander were going to be doing for that hour?![]()
