That is really weird they changed one of the jellyfish to pink. There is really no logical sense to it, beyond them responding to the gay jellyfish jokes. Which would be really stupid, why do extra terrestrial jellyfish have to conform to Earth's western culture's view of gender color coding? Changing the color is a dumb and puzzling move.

I could start and argument about this, but I won't.  Suffice it to say I that disagree with you about homosexuals and Star Trek.   

You seem to be getting a bit upset by this discussion. Why? If you disagree with Bingo's feelings about Star Trek being a bit homophobic for a show that tried to make itself out to be a liberal wet-dream, why not make your case?

I find it an interesting discussion. I remember reading somewhere that back when the show was still airing, a gay sci-fi fan club called the gaylaxians were a bit irked with the writers who had made all sorts of promises about having a gay full time cast member and being on the forefront of the gay rights movement as they were on the forefront of the civil rights movement before that, but yet all those promises kind of fell flat before all was said and done.
