Klingons wouldn't have crooked teeth. Crooked teeth are a sign of comfortable society bringing you majority soft foods, encouraging smaller jaw development and thus crowding.

Klingons would have super straight teeth, and depending on how hard of stuff they chew on, likely also surprisingly clean and healthy

Also their jawlines would be fucking SSS-tier from all the gnarly chewing from being badass warriors and biting everything

I mean, most inh universe Klingons had varying teeth of all kinds. So it's no big deal. Also, your costume looks seriously legit.

Also, my teeth are crooked and I don't have a stellar jawline, most people are pretty normal. But that isn't my point. Just an interesting thought that, the in-universe is flawed and probably pretty backwards if you know. City people get easy, soft food, which causes too much sugar in the mouth, promoting tooth decay. Biological anthropology literally tells us to use it or lose it - and to all of my knowledge of Klingon culture, them especially compared to federation vessels, are "using it". So, most likely, federation, and especially humans, would likely have more crowding than Klingons, who are culturally hunters and chewers and biters and gnarlers. Lol. Imagine what the Klingons would look like, if you used their culture, planet, and lore to derive how they looked.

So only people with perfect teeth are allowed to cosplay Klingon? That’s gatekeeping.

Not sure if that is just a joke I'm not picking up on. But those are very obviously prosthetic teeth, and someone went out of their way to design them to be crooked, etc. That comment is pointing out that realistically, from a biological/evolutionary perspective or whatever, those prosthetics should be very straight teeth.

I took it 100% as sarcasm. You got there, no worries.

It was a joke. I was acting like I believed those are her real teeth.

[-] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 4 points 22 hours ago

To be fair, we don't all employ the Doc's lack of subtle sarcasm.
