The man in the dress

As I understand it, all the female costumes were padded in the boobies area.

And I think Troi was medium size at best, given her frame perhaps a small cee cup. I'm bigger than that, and am hardly massive.

(admittedly fake though)
 
Sigh, I'll say it again, it's got nothing to do with progressive thought, it's got nothing to with "enlightenment" - or lack of - it all boils down to one simple thing:

It's a rubbish uniform.

It's a rubbish uniform that looks rubbish on both men and women.

I believe most Star Trek fans are open-minded and free of prejudice and simply judge the TNG skant on one criterion - it's, well, rubbish.

I think most were etremely thankful it disappeared rapidly.

The only problem I have with this particular argument is that the only example that's consistently cited is a man.

If the womens' version was brought up as frequently, your argument would IMO have more credibility.

Ta da. Happy now?

It still sucks.


I think he is missing his man purse...... Poor Marina Sirtis, if she didn't wear any undies and if she sat down in the chair with that camera angle. You might just see her uncle joe/ va-jay-jay. Not a good uniform to wear if you have to bend down to pick something up from the ground.
 
It wasn't a "skirt" in the sense that if she sat down wrong you'd see her knickers. They were closer to being a "skort" or culottes. They were short-shorts with a "skirt-looking" wrap around. If she sat down all you'd see would be nothing greatly different than if she was wearing shorts.
 
It's funny. I can watch the most far fetched story line with a straight face, accept the planet of blonde half naked running people etc.

But as soon as I saw that guy in his little red mini dress, strut his stuff through the halls I actually burst out laughing and the illusion of sci-fi was destroyed.

I get what he was trying to prove. But really.... xD

Well said.
 
Oh my mum loved this! She loves a nice burly man with big butch legs. Now she could objectify officers on board the enterprise. Equality for all!
