Hasn't Star Trek Always Had Transgender Characters?

Let's discuss some of the criticisms of the upcoming transgender/nonbinary characters in Star Trek Discovery Season 3. 

Hasn't Star Trek Always Had Transgender Characters?

You took the words right out of my mouth... "Not disabled himself." I'm not a fan of the misrepresentation of ANY community! Again, thank you SO MUCH for bringing awareness to the disabled community without using the "sympathy card."

Me too. Believe me... Star Trek has been really helpful these past few weeks.

Me too! Thank you for your kind words! I wish I could go to the future and just be for a few days too. I think about it too often these days sadly.

Indeed. I have heard many in the disabled community alternatively praise and heavily criticize Geordi. He def was not perfectly done, and I hope I didn't portray that he was perfect. I tired to at least make note of that fact in the video when I said "some problems with his character notwithstanding" because I wasn't the most educated to talk about all the specifics of the problems with his representation of the disabled community (probably the first of which that, while I love the actor, he was not disabled himself)

Thank you for mentioning the disabled community. That being said, Jordy is not "poster child" material. most of the time his overlooked. When it's not, it's missed used. They do get "right" though...sometimes...

Well done, as always. Even Vulcans become emotional when the issue is important. I can't wait for season 3 of Discovery. Sometimes it feels like burying myself in the Star Trek universe is all that keeps me sane right now.
