Comment on ‘Star Trek: Enterprise’ Cast On How Series Was Last Hurrah For “Boys Club” TV Before Me Too Movement
benfell@infosec.exchange 1 day ago@ValueSubtracted I recall noticing the sexism on Enterprise. I don't recall noticing it on Voyager, which had two strong female characters. But I'm an old man raised in a more chauvinistic era--I might not notice.

Seven of Nine’s suit was painted on

Yeah if they hadn’t struck gold with Jeri Ryan that whole situation would have been seen in a whole different light. She and the writers pulled that decision out of the gutter.

I definitely noticed that.
I think Janeway and 7 were well written. B’elana was mostly just angry.

I don’t remember shit about B’elana , or much of Voyager characterisation except :
B’elana being mostly angry makes sense as a Klingon and an engineer. each facet isn’t known for being sunshine on rainbows, combined, not exactly going to be a delight.

True enough.
7 and the EMH we’re the best characters in the show, IMHO.

I read B’elana as a point that the chief engineer doesn’t always need to be some composed nerd. Even a person with deep anger control issues, with interest in (Klingon) religion, can be a good fit for that position and can stand her ground to a literal Borg.
Plus ofc Janeway + B’elana and + 7 later, meant that most science-related decision were made by a group of women.
But as everyone on the cast, once 7 and doctor were out, the screentime was really compressed 😶

Jeri was local and would appear regularly at local cons :p
