In Star Trek's defense, I think humans are just about the weakest bipedal sapient species out there, and if they're not, they're near the bottom. Almost every other species seems to be stronger or tougher than humans as one of their characteristics. :warf-wtf:
I love my star trek, but let's not pretend that just about every species has at least one scene where one of their members is mooneyed in adulation over the fortitude of the human spirit, or their adaptability, or their ferociousness or whatever. It is a very human centric show.

I didn't.
Trek does flatter humans, but it almost never flatters them for their strength or physical endurance, as I said.
