She has "MIND POWERS"tm like Spock, but is emotional and stuff.

She is important for diplomatic missions as well as scientific (she is a science officer afterall)

She is also just Next Gen Ilia

Every time she involved herself in matters she either made things worse by giving shit advice or had no affect whatsoever.
I think she just represented women in general with their emotional bullshit.
>>
Every scene with Troi:

Worf: Commander, they're hailing us.
Picard: Open a channel.
Klingon/Romulan/Borg/Cardassian/Ferenghi: (10 minutes of insulting Picard's mother, followed by a cut in the transmission).
Troi: Commander, I sense unhappiness!

She was a plot device in a few episodes to allow the crew to know how to approach beings that they couldn't directly communicate with, and then they kept her around for TNA.

no, besides, when she's not on the bridge she's the ship's counselor dealing with the inevitable SpAcE mAdDnEsS that sets in when a regular mission involves crazy shit that makes you question the meaning of life on the fringes of known space
>>
>>71276149
but we never see her do this. we only occasionally see her contribute to space madness when some beta crewman has a crush on her and nerdrages when she spurns him. honestly she seemed to do nothing productive at all and caused more harm than good just by walking around in that cameltoe costume all day

we don't see stellar cartography mapping stars either, even though everyone is always talking about it.

Besides, she is in charge of performance reports alongside Commander Riker and shit about who gets promotions because she can tell if they are overworking themselves or are actually skilled.

After Picard and Riker; Troi, Data, and Geordi are all equally ranked as Lt. Cmdr. and can assume command (although in most likelihood Data would assume command because Geordi would be in engineering). Even though Dr. Crusher is a Commander, it is more about her position as chief medical officer.

If you are going to try to project edgelord sexist views on a show that has always been about equality and progressive issues, why would you even bother watching Star Trek?
>>
>>71276881
What the fuck does "command" do besides being captain/first officer? Most teams that do specific missions aren't even led by a "command" red shirt, they're led by a yellow or blue that is appropriate to the task.

>>71273936
They are yellow and green if you know what I mean.

sometimes a command officer wears a color uniform of what ever their specialty or department is. They are more highly trained in functions of coordinating the operations while operations actually do the things. Take the people on the USS Enterprise (if given the departmental colors of the NCC-1701-D Enterprise), people on the bridge would be in Command Red while medics would be in Science Teal, and theguys that wave the planes around or monitor various ships systems would be in Operations Gold. The people that would be piloting the helicopters would be in Command Red, but the soldiers that they would be carrying would be in Operations Gold.

That's a picture of women who usually don't wear Starfleet uniforms.

Daxes usually wear Starfleet uniforms.

You are an idiot.

Sex appeal.

I watched some behind the scenes Trek show and Gates McFadden said originally she was cast for that role but Sirtis was chosen because she had a more appealing camel toe for the viewers.

I think you mean Gene made an off comment about sirtis' gap being wider, that's why she doesn't wear standard uniform, and rather a tight bodysuit on the show.

Wrong. We see her in counseling sessions with a LOT of people, and not just Barclay either. She helps Geordi recover from being captured by the Romulans and messing with his head. Worf and Alexander see her for parent/child counseling. The episode where she loses her telepathy, she's having regular sessions with some ensign.

a large portion of the fanbase is autistic. thus we need someone to translate the intentions of other characters the viewers. It may seem like stating the obvious to us normal viewers but it really helps out our friends on the spectrum

Dear OP,

Keep up the good work. Create more Trek threads so that we bump off GoT threads. Tqvm.
