Space...the Final Countdown

The central character of the episode: *enters ten forward*

Star Trek TOS + ao3tags

Me: Going through my tng rewatch, I’m realizing Riker isn’t actually that bad. Yes, he sleeps around, but he doesn’t objectify women the way people act like he does. I think he suffers from the same thing as Kirk where pop culture has just decided that he’s this misogynistic womanizer when he’s just not. I actually really like the way he sleeps around, because it implies society has a more healthy relationship with sex in the 24th century, where people who want sex to mean something can have that, but people who just want to have fun with sex can have that too and not be judged for it.
