Why in the discussion of Star Trek babes, does Uhura get overlooked

[GreenPartyVoter]

so frequently? It's all 7 of 9 this and T'Pol that, but I think Uhura was gorgeous!

1. She was, maybe because most posters

never saw TOS (before their time?). I know Sulu was hot for her.

2. I wasn't aware that people talked about Star Trek babes

But I'm with you. She was hot.

3. I think, I hope this doesn't sound too blunt, it's a matter of youth.

True, Uhura was indeed a hottie, but that was at the height of the classic series back in the sixties. I think it's just a matter of who's hot right now. If they, once again, remake the Trek series twenty years from now, T'Pol and 7 of 9 will be overlooked as well.

4. She was hot

But I think people may have been traumatized by that silhouetted naked dance she did in...I think it was ST:VI, where Spock's brother stole the ship to look for god.

That was much to far past her prime to be doing that.

6. Star Trek V: The Final Fontier.

But I saw pictures of Nichelle Nichols that were taken of her when she was doing modeling, before she got into acting.

Yup, including her NEKKID! :-)

She sent my libido into warp drive LONG before Troi showed up! :D

5. Uhuru and Kirk had TV's first interracial kiss!

That was hot!
