I picked "...both?" BECAUSE, WELL, HOW COULD I CHOOSE?
But ooooh, heeeey, most attractive Papa Kirk in the "Too Many Dicks" video. No, there are not enough women in Star Trek, even though Uhura is pretty awesome as far as women go. But I have to counter that with the fact that if JJ had decided to recast a few of the major characters as women, a lot of people would have had none of it. And YES, what does the opinion of fandom truly matter in the end, especially when it comes to opportunities for "non-standard," forward-moving casting, but sometimes a franchise is a franchise, and...yeah. But I guess there could have been more women just aroooound doing Star Fleet stuff, not just sleeping with cute would-be captains.
P.S. I REALLY LIKE THOSE VIDEOS, AND THE MEN IN THAT FILM ARE REALLY CUTE, BUT ALSO, GIRL POWER. BUT ALSO GOOD LOOKING MENFOLK. AND GIRL POWER.
(Also, the lyrics to "Too Many Dicks" are actually hilarious. Not enough ladies, too many mans. HAHAHAHAH, I'M LOLING.
AAH, MORE LIKE, TOO MANY EDITS, NOT ENOUGH CLAIRE KNOWING HOW TO WRITES.
