Let's settle this once and for all: was he a pedophile?
Well we did get confirmation that Kes was actually prepubescent.Then again almost nothing about her race makes any sense so who really cares
>>219455367Troi was. She put on her boob shirt as soon as Picard turned into a 13 yo boy
>>219455851>Well we did get confirmation that Kes was actually prepubescentShe got pregnant...
>>219455851Yeah, Kes' made very little sense. Didn't they have like 2 year life span as well?
>>219455917That was in an episode where she travels to the future or some bullshit.But we saw her go through a weird alien induced precocious puberty in the second season (never saw her go through it naturally BTW) and Neelix met her long before that.
>>219455896I think the rule is that you're allowed to hit on teens who are taller than you, at least if you're a woman.
Ocampa would’ve made perfect comfort men/woman for Voyager’s crew. They’re like dogs you can fuck and get a new model every few years. They should’ve started breeding Kes immediately
>>2194559438-9 years. But did they ever specify how long an Ocampan year actually was?
>>219455367I mostly enjoyed his time on the show
>>219455367The probability of an alien civilization in Star Trek among the many thousands, that either is straight up ok with sex with the minors in their civilization or just physically looks like a minor as an adult (to a human) is probably very high.That said, humanity has achieved such an enlightened state that all pedophilia is either treated/cured or it's simply non existent. Which begs the question how the Federation treats alien cultures that are ok with it. And it makes an alien like Neelix that much more dangerous/scary because aliens are exempt from this enlightened vision (they're often used in Star Trek as a foil to depict bad traits in 20th century humanity, like those black/white racist aliens in TOS)
>>219456645For some aliens, pedophilia may not even be wrong. And be a mutual respectful relationship that has is naturally occurring. Like you said, the federations probably cured the sexual compulsion — if there is no compulsion it isn’t necessary to consider the thing itself bad. Nobody would care if O’Brien fucked Keiko in Rascals.
>>219456711>if there is no compulsion it isn’t necessary to consider the thing itself bad.Bullshit. Do you think murder isn't bad in cases where the murderer has no compulsion? And that's leaving aside whether pedophilia is always compulsive which I don't buy either.
>>219455367Retarded tweet from someone who clearly never watched Voyager at all.Neelix episodes are frequently among the very best, now the real cream of the crop?...Neelix+Tuvok episodes. Go watch "Riddles" or "Tuvix" or "Homestead" and tell me I'm wrong.You won't because you can't because I'm right.I love Neelix and I want to protect him. Now eat the fucking stew, crewman.
>>219456829 A kid having sex if they want to isn’t necessarily bad in a future where all the externalities that cause physical or psychological harm have been subsequently fixed. If both parties consent there shouldn’t be an issue because the mental state that causes one to be a degenerate groomer pervert has already been fixed.
>>219456906i like the one where he dies for a few minutes and comes back all depressed because he doesn't end up in sovenguard or valhalla or whateverthe tweeter obviously didn't make it to later seasons
>>219455367Kes is very clearly a fully grown woman. Her love affair with Neelix is completely uncontroversial.
>>219456910We've seen psychological trauma plenty of times in Trek. And do you remember the rape gangs? It seems like you're assuming that pedophiles in all cases only do what defines them because of a mental illness and not because they're evil. Again, consider murder. Sure it happens from time to time that people feel compelled to murder but in most cases they simply want to.
>>219455367probably yes.
>>219456919S4 E12 "Mortal Coil", another very fine Neelix episode I did not list only due to the fact I was pointing toward the Neelix+Tuvok combination.Great pick though, Neelix rules you don't need to be reminded.
>>219456972Tasha’s rape gangs don’t really make much sense and are never mentioned again thoughbeit. But what you’re describing would be a kind of sexual sadism, which doesn’t seem to be present at all and has likely been cured. Murder is a mental illness result technically (low impulse control, rage, sadism), unless it’s actually justified by harm reduction.
>>219456711>>219456829whats it called when shes 95?
>>219457128Lolibaba
>>219457093How doesn't it make sense? She comes from the Kuroinu planet.
>>219457093Actually they bring the rape gangs up again when they go to Tasha's planet lol
