    Yeah I thought about the Kirk-Uhura kiss but two things, they aren’t currently openly saying that shouldn’t be allowed (on Fox News) and considering she was a Yeoman or a Lieutenant at the time being kissed by her Captain is right along the “grab em by the pussy” narrative they side with.

    You are right if they looked at any of the social establishments that the franchise embraces they would hate it.

      They were being forced to kiss by telepathic aliens. They both even admit they have had feelings for each other in the past but it was inappropriate to act on them. I don’t think that applies.
