Commander Tucker Ask About Vulcan Mating Rituals

[@travisnewberry936]

That's the most laid back, easy going Vulcan I have ever seen.

[@Oldspartan65]

True 😊

[@shmuck66]

cause he let emotions in.

[@jayboeker1935]

I don't remember all the details, but that Vulcan doesn't suppress his emotions.

[@HinDoongEe]

He’s part of a group V’tosh’takur who don’t suppress their emotions and even still eat meat.

[@bartolomeestebanmurillo4459]

I remember a writer actually clarified that Ponn Farr happens every 7 years but Vulcans can have sexual relations anytime of their choosing.

[@Rensune]

Which makes sense.

[@kadindarklord]

Yes. The late DC Fontana, to be specific. Pon Farr is the drive to mate, not the act itself.

[@wesjanson6979]

if I remember correctly Tuvok used to talk about how he porked his wife as often as possible

[@TheBigExclusive]

I must say It's questionable how often Vulcans would mate between 7 years since they are supressing their emotions and feelings.

[@phantasosxgames8488]

@@TheBigExclusive true , but that comes from upbringing , rather than an issue of the act or a drive to it. there is less libido in non-Pon Farr periods , or at least a diminished indulgence of it , but not an absence of it , it just comes down to getting used to it.

I love the look on Trip s face when the Vulcan said "you mean sex"

I've never seen a chubby Vulcan before

[@Freddie1980]

There was one in Deep Space Nine episode 'Take Me Out to the Holosuite' (where the crew taken on a Vulcan baseball team)

[@virginiaconnor8350]

I think Kov has had too much "fun" experimenting with various foods, especially human foods. Like T'Pol said, he's V'Tosh Katur (Vulcans Without Logic) along with Tolaris and Cpt. Tannik. Tolaris is the one who mind-raped T'Pol and gave her Pa'nar Syndrome in 'Fusion'.

[@honkhonk8009]

Hes probably an older one.

[@ArnoldBraunswagger]

A fat or chubby Vulcan !? It would have been ilillogical for beings so devoted to logic to embrace a dietary regime that leads to an unhealthy choice in foods. One of the reasons these spin-offs did not fare so well is that they/the writers strayed from the concepts of the original series that fans knew and loved . The writers were not fans and did not care.

[@leonardo899]

​@@ArnoldBraunswagger Compared to New Trek, the writers of Enterprise really cared about the lore.

[@NoahSpurrier]

Yeah, most series take some time to warm up. This one took a little longer, but it did get much better towards the end.

[@hancock63]

Don't Vulcan females also go through Pon Farr? I seem to recall an episode where T'Pol was about to jump Dr. Phlox.

[@dhinton1]

Yes. Vulcan men AND women go thru Pon Farr every seven years.

[@AhsokaTanoTheWhite]

@@dhinton1 So Vulcan couples mate twice every 7 years atleast.

[@pixel4779]

I think that was mainly for ratings 😅

[@virginiaconnor8350]

That was "Bounty". Actually, the spores she and Phlox picked up might have interfered with her Pa'nar Syndrome and made her think she was going through pon farr. Phlox was the only male with her, but not Vulcan. I read that females are affected by Ponn far, just not affected like males. Her symptoms could have started an early menses as well.

[@michellebruce5092]

Nice question to ask. I like this episode of star trek enterprise 😀

[@virginiaconnor8350]

Except when T'Pol has become ill with Pa'nar Syndrome and collapses in her qtrs. She has this illness til T'Pau cures her and also has to deal with her Trellium addiction (which she can only blame herself).

Unfortunately haven't seen many episodes of Enterprise. I wish I had watched it more when it was on tv.

[@virginiaconnor8350]

@@andrewolson5471 I doubt any of them were Romulan. Might have been Syrranites. Tolaris creeped me out from the beginning (and we know so little about the captain, except he likes chicken marsala). No wonder T'Pol was so eager for him to leave. She passed out-from Pa'nar Syndrome.

7 years sounds like married life.

to a Japanese woman.

[@NoahSpurrier]

Could be a nod to the expression “the seven year itch”. Could be why 7 years was picked for the script.

[@virginiaconnor8350]

Yet, Trip wanted T'Pol to say they had sex later (in 'Harbinger') and was disappointed she said it was only an exploration in human sexuality. Would she have said the same thing if he gone ahead and spoken first?

If I go 7 weeks without any action I kinda start losing it to be honest

[@tomjustis7237]

In my younger days I started "losing it" if I went two or three days without any action. However, things change. Just wait until you get to be my age and have to go on blood pressure medication. It may keep you alive but it also greatly interferes with the...ummm..."blood pressure" required to become, shall we say, aroused. I have sadly reached the point in my life where I need a double dose of Viagra just to talk about sex!

Hi Jamie, I will think about your request. To me all the new Star Trek is not true Star Trek. I seen a few episode of Lower Decks it's ok. One episode I like is when Captain Riker made his entrance.
