All those macho Klingons, packed on those Warbirds for years? You don't think there's been a little Slap & Tickle going on?

/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

Wait. Klingons weren't gay?
It’s a super masculine race of warriors that has two of every organ, including that one, I mean …
Nobody saw that coming from the delta quadrant away?
Nothing's more manly and warrior-like than two men getting it on obviously, but the feminization of klingons is problematic.
I'm assuming this is from SFA, which I haven't watched. But weren't Klingon women like, strong and ferocious as fuck? Based entirely on what I can remember Worf saying, it seems like Klingon sex is always initiated by the female literally assaulting the male, and then they're married after.
I can't imagine you'd really be able to tell the difference if a Klingon was gay.
Not always no. In Generations when Soren punches one of the Duras sisters she tells him he'd better have been initiated a Klingon mating ritual. And in the De-evolution episode Worf bit Troi in the face claiming her as his mate.
That's right. I remember now. In that case, I'd say it's damn near impossible to tell the difference and I'd be surprised to learn that most Klingons don't swing both ways, at least a little.
We're pretty sure they have two penises, maybe ones for boys and ones for girls.

Derdia?
Someone needs to research the concept of Shudō...😂
Many warrior castes were VERY gay... haven't they seen the movie 300!?
A warrior's sexuality!
Ugh
Low hanging fruit at best from lazy writers who heard the word "Klingons" and "progressive" so went with this
Seriously, had I seen a gay Klingon on TNG I would have completely gone with it because TNG had (mostly) great writers that would make some awesome episode about it that would make you think and talk about it for days.
But this being nu trek, I suppose the guy will remind everyone 5 times each episode that he's gay. He's a Klingon but they'll make him effeminate, even though female Klingons not once not ever were like that. They'll make him use all sort of modern sassy expressions or something and all the open moral and ethical questions that TNG would do will be completely 100 % if ores because why make an intelligent show if you can just virtue signal and call it a day?
Modern trek sucks sooooo bad, and yes, I'm so happy I stopped watching as it was making me depressed. Star trek, of all things, was making a progressive person depressed. Fuck nu trek.
It's also the first time I remember seeing a Klingon medical researcher but I don't see anyone getting bent out of shape about his unusual, you might say progressive, career path for some reason
