Many fans complain about Lwaxana Troi’s StarTrek episodes but there were always those of us who loved her. Yesterday, Matt Baume shared his explanation of his own love for this character brought to life by the wonderful Majel Barrett.
Matt is a queer journalist. Much of his work focuses on how queer people influenced popular culture. His latest book is Hi Honey, I’m Homo.
(And Matt has no idea who I am or that I’m sharing his video on Threadiverse. 😹)
That’s pretty much her entire character in every episode she’s in. I can’t think of a single example of her respecting boundaries or consent
Perfect description of the character. Shes absolutely vile. I wonder if she was a man if more people would recognize how gross she is.
she tried to destroy a man’s family by trying to keep him from killing himself. Then “learned” her lesson and went along with it.
Y’all will always blame the woman for the actions of a man.
There’s that one episode where she relives the trauma of losing her first child.
