  4. @spacekatgal glad to be hearing this, it's contrary to what other women have told me, namely that TNG puts lots of women in powerful roles.

  6. @Spacekatgal This monkey is double-facepalming 🙈 Do women get belittled in the star trek fandom. I dunno; take a wild guess.

  9. @Spacekatgal Does Voyager fall into White/Geek privilege? Janeway was pretty epic I thought.

  10. @Spacekatgal Only Latino in Star Trek was in Voyager and the character was Native American.

  11. @Spacekatgal To ensure I under, this is about women characters _in_ Star Trek or about women fans _of_ Star Trek?

  12. .@Spacekatgal "But for its time it was super progressive." By historicizing ST, we free ourselves from having to engage with its privilege.

  13. @Spacekatgal But Brianna I'm a white man and I'VE certainly never noticed any inclusiveness issues with Star Trek.

  14. @spacekatgal My wife's a big Star Trek fan, didn't think about how bad it could be since she's not active about it online.

  15. @Spacekatgal Maybe they expect that Zoe Saldana covers all their brown bases.
