Reading The Lives of Dax and the story about Emony Dax is gross. McCoy is a featured character and he& #39;s not even 18 in the sort and yet is courted by Emony despite the fact she was performing gymnastics before he was born. She& #39;d have to be at least a decade older than him
He& #39;s a MINOR and she, an adult, encouraged him to ask her out. WTF was Michael Jan Friedman thinking!?
And then they had sex. A 17 year old boy and a woman that has to be in her 30s AT LEAST.
And the fact she& #39;s an alien who might have different maturation periods is specifically nullified when she says there Trill& #39;s have a comparable life span to humans.

So here& #39;s an adult woman, with a symbiont of two lifetimes, having sex with a teenager.

How was this published?
And then to top it all off McCoy freaks out when he finds out that one of the previous Dax hosts was a man.

Where are those evolved sensibilities we& #39;re always led to believe humans have in the future.
This is a thoroughly disgusting story. I am appalled and horrified by it.
At least McCoy realises he was being a dick

Doesn& #39;t save Emony for taking advantage of a teenager though
