Earl Grey 76: This is Ceti Risa Five!

Sexuality and Relationships.


 


The Next Generation was not bashful about examining issues of
sexuality and relationships during its seven seasons. In the late
1980s and early 1990s, episodes like "Justice" and "Captain's
Holiday" portrayed a 24th Century where sexual expression was
much more open and equal for both sexes. TNG also introduced
alien species like the Betazed (in the forms of Lwaxana and
Deanna Troi), the J'naii ("The Outcast"), and the Trill ("The
Host") who have completely different perspectives on romantic
relationships. Phillip. Daniel, and Darren examine how Gene
Roddenberry's vision of futuristic sexual expression compares to
modern day attitudes, and how people will view relationships 300
years from now. The Earl Grey trio attempt to explain how the
Commander William T. Riker/Counselor Troi relationship best
represents 24th Century mores. So set your coordinates for Risa,
bring along your horga'hn, and join in on the discussion of
sexuality and relationships in TNG.
