My weekly column at @ Towleroad covers Inter-Starfleet romances imagined and otherwise in the Star Trek universe (despite years of Star Trek watching I'd never seen the clip I've included of a famous "backrub" scene in the original series. Too funny). This is semi off-topic but it's too bad that futuristic sci-fi franchises --even those taking place in worlds where gender and race are no longer divisive -- still have yet to be progressive about sexuality. Even Battlestar Galactica tripped up there. Also: brief tidbits regarding Make me a Supermodel and general movie news.
