"...the men from Vulcan treat their women strangely."

[Admiral Shran]

I don't know how anyone can look at the interaction between Sarek and Amanda in Journey to Babel and not see the affection between them, right down to the "formal" finger-touching. After all, Vulcans are touch-telepaths. The finger holding is downright intimate.

That it is. In "The Search for Spock," Saavik and Spock start thier Pon Farr mating with a similiar finger holding ritual. And it was hot!

Yeah, I know, I'm demented and pathetic for thinking that scene was hot, but there it is.

I didn't find that scene sexy, but Spock and the Romulan Commander finger-touching in The Enterprise Incident was really HOT.

I probably only find it sexy because I think Robin Curtis is smoking hot.

What Amanda gets out of it is questionable. Plus, I sort of suspect kissing a Vulcan would be like making out with sandpaper.

If I were in the Star Trek universe, I could think of several female Vulcans I'd gladly make out with, sandpaper or not.
