Star Trek TNG Quotes That Deal With Sex And Romance...

You know sometimes the pithy wisdom of Star Trek is a lot like Shakespeare. I at least think so. My parents and I were avid Trekkies. But I don't think we were ever that into it.

IAE I have copied and pasted all these quotes from ST: TNG that deal with the subject of sex, and romance too. Read it. You might be surprised how relevant some of it is:

RIKER: I told you, I prefer equals.

YUTA: Even in the matters of love?

RIKER: Especially in matters of love.

TROI: Anticipation is fun.

PICARD: Doesn't love always begin that way? With the illusion being more real than the woman?

SOREN: "Then it is up to women to attract the men?"

DR. CRUSHER: "Oh no, men want to be attractive, too. Believe me. They just go about it differently. They like to pretend they're not doing anything to attract a woman, even when it's the most important thing on their minds."
