    I don’t think specie nor gender matter to Riker

      Riker knows where Data’s off switch is as well as how fully functional he is.

        I don’t like the implication. Riker always respected in consent.

        Riker knows how to turn Data off and how to turn on Data.

    He fell for a genderless, androgynous alien in TNG. I think he favors feminine beauty, but wouldn’t say no if, say, Garek came along.

      To be fair, the whole plot point is that their species appears androgynous, but they aren’t always, and the one he falls for is explicitly female, which he noticed subconsciously, and comments on once she reveals that she is actually female.

      So I’d say he so much into women he sniffed out the estrogen in a species that tries their hardest to appear genderless. The ultimate heterosexual.
