Review: Star Trek Voyager (Series)

It's fascinating watching and hearing 'Borg' as 'Black'. The crew I watched so avidly seem very racist this time round. #WhiteSupremacy. IMDB Star Trek Voyager (Series)  Actors: Kate Mulgrew, Robert Beltran

Review: Star Trek Voyager (Series) - about Kes

Star Trek Voyager S04E02. Kes was not known from the outset to be female, having no assigned gender. She has a life-span of 9 years. Kes unexpectedly goes through puberty (she has been PREPUBESCENT and in a relationship with Neelix (the oldest-looking character, and oldest) until now!), and she wants Neelix to father her child, and part of the ritual is that her PARENT must massage her feet until her tongue swells!, and then she will be ready to mate. On the other hand Tuvok looks late twenties and he is 107, his parents are not involved in his mating ritual. Gosh, I know the idea is that we embrace all the cultures and species of aliens, but sjoe, this may be asking a wee bit too much of me. I should get over myself, right? A trekkie can make me understand this correctly, né? IMDB Star Trek Voyager (Series) Actors: Kate Mulgrew, Robert Beltran
