Ugggggh I wrote up a whole thing that didn’t post somehow… anyway:
The crew arrives on a planet where one of four genders is assigned to a person after an arbitrary life event happens (eg first steps, eyes opening, birth, etc). This gender is also tied with class in their society.
The alien genders are different colored/shaped alien ears or something that viewers can quickly identify visually.
A group of eco-terrorists sets off a dirty bomb that randomly gender bends anyone in the radius to one of those other genders. The away team gets hit by this and also gender swaps.
A klingon crew member is nonbinary and not affected at all, someone drops a line about not knowing they were enby and gets a blunt “gender has no baring on a warrior’s honor” line.
Vulcan crewmember becomes a woman, has immense gender euphoria, and then realizes they’ve been suppressing their gender identity their whole life along with their emotions.
The eco-terrorists use this gender swap event to undermine the gender-essentialist social order and kick off a people’s revolution. The space terf rulers who were force transitioned have a 75/25 split between learning empathy and trying to kill everyone (they are immediately phazered).
Speech from the captain character about how star fleet and humanity abolished prescriptive notions of gender before we even took to the stars.
The crew members affected try to find a “cure”, but realize there isn’t one. This is only mildly inconvenient since gender transitioning treatments have been widely available since the early 21st century.

This has happened to me several times and I wanted to reply in solidarity with you. Any multi-paragraph comment I now paste into a notepad document first.
I've noticed that hexbear seems to forget that you're logged in if you sit on one page for too long (like if you're typing out a story outline on your phone)...
Edit: :reddit-logo: and other sites do the same thing when I use them, not sure if it's due to default user settings or if it has more to do with the engineering of the site.

Star Trek ENT S2E22 - Though the ending of that episode is controversial. Fun fact: That episode inspired my Discord Profile Picture

Like recently? I never noticed this before the last couple of weeks.

I'm bad at placing dates but yeah, over the last month or so I'd say. Happens more often if my VPN connection gets shitty.

Why is it controversial?
That'd be wicked cool.
