    We could have turned VOY as well as ENT into such different series with our fashion choices. Both would have been better shows.

    Catsuits are very Star Trek, but it can't just be worn solely by women. TNG first 2 seasons had them and they were great, when it was the THING to just wear those lazy Colonists Coveralls from TOS which spawned DS9, VOY, and ENT's costumes it wasn't necessary to have a catsuit. The mini-dress uniform from TOS blended well with the male uniforms but when TNG got neo-conservative I thought the catsuit stuck out like a sore thumb and never chime with the visual esthetic it conveyed. It wasn't sexy anymore, it was bland and unfortunately this esthetic remained on ALLACCESS PLUS Trek.

    That's actually 75% accurate. The top hat, though, is comically oversized.

    That’s a cat in a man suit, not a man in a cat suit!

    The whole world’s gone insane!

    My only takeaway is that you clearly have either an issue with women or you have a sense of humour that hasn't changed since 1993

    Warning for trolling (you can’t possibly have thought this was okay to post).

    Now I'm thinking of this movie they came out with a few years ago called Cats.

    I almost, almost, almost went to go see it out of curiosity (because curiosity killed the cat!), then I saw terrible reviews and other people told me it was horrible. So I didn't.

    This madness is all Shatner's fault, he came up with the worst catsuit of all, in TFF

    OR THE BEST.

    Nah, that one was over the top. But I think that ended up being a member of the three-breasted species of Draylax referenced by Travis in the first episode of ENT. So...yay?

    I always assumed the cat dancer was a Kzinti.

    I believe it was 1991, with Nirvana’s Smells Like Teen Spirit. That was the end of music.

    Liking this post. Not because I agree (you're stepping on my turf!), but because I was waiting for someone to say that. :D

    And then there’s the two Caitians Kelvin Kirk was with.

    You mean, that's not Eccentrica Gallumbits, of Eroticon Six?
