I remember that, in one of the many Trek documentaries I’ve watched, this was some sort of misguided 1980s attempt by Gene Rodenberry to be gender-neutral when it came to the objectification of bodies in Trek. Interesting how everyone thought it was awkward once the roles were reversed.
Too bad they didn’t learn, “perhaps we should just stop doing this,” and went back to, “let’s just go back to doing this only to women.” Then we careened into the 90s space babe era.
