minus-squareTheGrandNagus@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up16·edit-211 months agoIt’s worse because she’s telepathic - she knows the advances are unwanted and makes people uncomfortable, and yet she does it anyway. On top of that, she’s a very important Federation ambassador. People might feel pressured into keeping her happy. I have a feeling that if she were of a different sex people would view her relentless unwanted sexual advances quite differently. But I guess “man trying to avoid sexual advances of horny older woman” was seen as being a hilarious role reversal on 90s TV. She did have some amazing scenes though. She can certainly act when she gets a serious scene as opposed to a sex pest scene.

minus-squareTheGrandNagus@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·11 months agoNah I don’t have telegram, must’ve been somebody else I’m afraid :)
minus-squareDoxin@yiffit.netlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·11 months agoI feel like most people would agree she’s a terrible person. Makes for a great character in a tv show though because she shakes things up.
minus-squareLarkinDePark@lemmygrad.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·11 months agoHer demeaning of her daughter too, “little one”, grates. She’s a narcissist. Reminds me of someone in real life and I’ll never be able to get past it.
