/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.

I will say how awesome would it be if children came out genderless till adulthood then they touch a seashell to pick on their 18th birthday. Solve so may problems. STEM becomes more accessible to woman. No pink tax on toys.
tng had just that situation, genderless species that were oppressed from displaying a "preferred gendered. enterprise had one as well, but a alternative/biological version.
Ursula K. Le Guin has entered the chat.
"Left Hand of Darkness" posits a human like society where people can morph between sexes.
Iain M. Bank's Culture series also has people shifting between sexes. It's just a thought process and time for them. One of the books the main character has switched a few times but is currently a male and one of his friends is transitioning.
It's even seen as a little weird if you don't try it at least once.
"The Ophiuchi Hotline" by John Varley
A lot of body swapping in this book. Very underrated writer in my opinion
Monkeys paw curls, person chose wrong.
