/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.
Fun will now commence.

"Neither" means
Oh interesting, I took neither to mean not fair because she doesn't fight fair and not maiden because she doesn't want to be treated that way by him. I actually didn't know maiden was tied to sex at all ๐ค
Yeah it's the literal meaning but not many people use it that way. I'm not surprised the censors let this one slide, even if it was in the script they wouldn't have got it.
The equivalent of baseball's scoreless inning is called a "maiden over" in cricket.
All of a sudden the phrase "maiden voyage" makes a lot more sense, never thought about it before
Nah. You could always at least reference fucking as long as you didn't use the word "fucking." Now if she had insinuated that she farted, that would have been immediately barred. Farts couldn't even be referenced.

the mamas and the papas got into a lot of trouble when their album cover showed a BRACE YOURSELF WARNING toilet
Yeah IDK I'm not a 1960's censor so I kinda think maybe they wouldn't care either way.
And here I was thinking it's something about her gender.
Im betting the "not fair" would still have been an issue as it draws attention to race, which was pretty taboo at the time.
Her and Shatners kiss was the first interracial kiss on television, and it caused all sorts of issues.
