Gay relationship before straight relationship

Typical of Netflix to have homosexual relationship before a heterosexual relationship is shown.

I have not seen every Star trek, I have seen some of it, as far as I am aware sexual relationships were at the minimum and definitely not the focus of the show.

To even have to show homosexual relationship is shocking, to show it before even a normal heterosexual relationship is shocking and takes away from the story of the show and is a great disservice to all the actors and everyone involved.

What next a transexual Klingon? Get the fuck out of here with your cultural Marxism bullshit.

Liberal Marxism BS. Spot on udn4916, spot on.

Unfortunately I was correct, which is a real shame. I am not sure I will ever be the same again after seeing the lead white male character being raped by Klingon "woman". I might need time to recover from that one.

"What next a transexual Klingon?"
There was mention of a Klingon female to Human male sexual relationship which didn't make sense to me in the last episode.

After watching this ep finally, it was subtle. Don't know the fuss about this. I didn't see them kissing and tonguing each other with full hard on gay sex. Was just a care for you remark and a then he leaves before that creepy mirror mirage thing came into view.

AND this show is called STD - coincidence?

[–] naDaht (1087) 7 years ago

It isn't. Some some called "real Star Trek fans" call it that. The nomenclature for ST shows is to use the "name" and short it on some way. TNG, ENT, VOY, TOS, TAS and DS9, not STT, STE, STV and so on. Follow your logic, DS9 would be called STD as well. But it's not. This show is DIS, or DISCO you feel a bit adventurous. STD is just a stupid slur from cry babies.

"To even have to show homosexual relationship is shocking, to show it before even a normal heterosexual relationship is shocking and takes away from the story of the show and is a great disservice to all the actors and everyone involved. "

- How exactly?
- How does it take anything from the story, because you know you wouldn't be writing this if it were a straight relationship?
- How is it a disservice to the actors?

You're actively looking for ways to be offended. It's not like heterosexual relationships haven't been shown - it's the distant future, clearly people aren't hung up on who they love.

If you look at a TV show and see color/gender/orientation over and above story and character, then you're actively looking for things to go online and moan about.

Stop trying to intellectualise your blatant anti-gay preferences and go watch an Expendables movie.
