Hey, I’m not sure if you know how un accepting your snarky jab is. It’s very un trek like.

I’m also not sure you appreciate how important representation is. It is very important that people see and read themselves in stories. It could save someone’s life. That importance cannot be understated or taken for granted.

This was likely tailored to the demographic that Picard serves. And while the writing wasn’t elegant, it’s still something. Hopefully it leads to more, as this character development is now canon.

Society is slowly crawling out of hetero normative times, where it is thankfully starting to be more common than ever to see diverse identity mainstream.

Millennials still have a streak of heteronormative thinking and cynicism, but hopefully they are one of the last generations to experience the closet.
