I always liked the Seven of Nine character, but I roll my eyes at the skin-tight costumes they put her in. I find it insulting as a man when media tries to appeal to me on such a base cave-man level. So with all due respect for Seven of Nine, from the Voyager years cold hard steel:

Just a quick reminder team that this is science fiction,,,,,most creatures strive for a bit of escapism and maybe a bit of sexiness,,there are more hidden tropes than you can shake a stick at in Sci-fi....primitive weapons / big ears...don’t get me started ... And lets not forget it is all a bit trivial... how much money have we spent on producing and consuming sci-fi films.... we could have had real floating city’s of Venus now for half the price.... so relax and don’t get too concerned if people look a bit hot... it is just show business,,,,
“Far back in the mists of ancient time, in the great and glorious days of the former Galactic Empire, life was wild, rich and largely tax free. Mighty starships plied their way between exotic suns, seeking adventure and reward among the furthest reaches of Galactic space. In those days spirits were brave, the stakes were high, men were real men, women were real women and small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri were real small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri. And all dared to brave unknown terrors, to do mighty deeds, to boldly split infinitives that no man had split before--and thus was the Empire forged. ...In these enlightened days, of course, no one believes a word of it.”
