    I would think a Klingon would learn English from the last words of his/her dying enemies.

      Funny post, but “his/her” makes me think, “What about non-binary Klingons?”

      That poses the interesting question: what is it like to be non-binary, or queer in general, as a Klingon? Sounds like a whole c/Daystrom Institute post I need to make.

        What’s interesting is that we sort of have a counterpoint already with The Orville’s Moclans, who have interpreted their warrior culture fixation as mandating force-transition to suppress females. This results in an interesting cameo by Dolly Parton playing her own hologram. The Klingons are at least more progressive there.
