Felicia's Melange: Star Trek Movie: SPOILERZZZZ →
It feels ridiculous to reblob Felicia Day (as if the known nerduniverse isn’t all already reading her), but man oh man - this was my EXACT issue with NuTrek. I loved it, exciting, adventure, woo, Action!Spock, but.. WHERE THE LADIES AT?

Seems like every 6 months or so - maybe once a year - there is a debate about rape jokes. Here’s how it goes:

She was doing a science experiment
