I watched “Dr Bashir I presume” last night, and Quark offered Rom the holosuite program Vulcan Love Slave Part 2.
…
Why would you want a Vulcan to service you sexually? I mean, there’s a few fetishes that tie into that (bored and ignored, clinical… detachedness, rape?) but, seriously, in this context it doesn’t seem like a good fit.
How would it even go? “It would be logical for you to climax now😐” , “You created genetic material of a higher than average quantity for your species. This is impressive to me😐”. Hardly a fulfilling love affair to take your mind off that fun Dabo girl. I’m sure there are far more sultry aliens out there to fulfil your fantasies.
Don’t yuck someone else’s yum. :D
My read on that was forbidden fruit/fetishization of the typically unavailable.
It’s not yucking someone’s yum, it’s wanting to understand something that ironically seems illogical. Also to joke about how I imagine the work to be like.
