reminds me of the episode where Q conjures a Klingon woman for Worf and they just kinda growl at each other until he hits her. and Riker, aghast and intolerant of other cultures, asks Worf if he’s fucking serious lol
Like riker doesn’t have a ton of weird kinks
There’s a non-zero probability that Riker’s fucked a chair, that’s for sure.
On purpose, or just trying to sit down?
Started as the latter, but…
That scene was always utterly hysterical to me. Just how suddenly Worf just beats the shit out of a woman out of fucking nowhere. Like what the hell are you doing bro. It’s framed and filmed in such a way that its not an obvious decision to make either. Especially when I didn’t know Klingons at the time. Worf suddenly back handing her and her being basically fine with it just hit my funny bone in a way I never expected. There was nothing that ever could have prepared me for the sudden culture shock. Riker had no damn excuse but at least I did.
Here’s the clip. for ease of access.
“This is sex!”
“it’s consensual, also culture” situations are my favorite part of the klingons. Also the warrior poetry and operas
The klingon/human dichotomy is fascinating.
In many ways humans and klingons are quite similar, it’s just that what klingons think of as strengths, humans often think of as weaknesses, and vice versa.
A klingon will brag of how many people they have killed, but be too ashamed to admit to avoiding war.
In the star trek universe, humans are proud of solving problems non-violently through diplomacy, and are often ashamed of having to use violence.
Leads to a lot of misunderstandings and conflict. It’s only with time that the klingons learn that humans (and the federation) are capable warriors and far less weak/meek than they initially appeared. Once they realise this, it’s inevitable that the relationship between the two thaws, as they learn to respect each other.
@Stamets Klingon cuddle dungeons are definatley a thing. My wife has been threatening me with them for years.
I’m going to need some contact details for them. I’m so lonely.
@Stamets uhm, you secretly hide away from society and cuddle your loved one in a gentle manner. Exhibitionist would do so in an open door hotel room, but outside of perhaps some very specific convention situations, this would be heavily frowned upon.

@driving_crooner @Stamets is “shares” a typo, or is that supposed to be some take off of shades (of gray) that this negro-divergent Star Trek fan doesn’t get.
Punk Klingons wandering around wearing pink silk and fluffy feather boas would be the equivalent of us seeing fellow humans in black leather
