Are there Gay Klingons?

If you are a Star Trek follower, then like me, you have wrestled with the following question - "Are there Gay Klingons?".


A Klingon "Biker Bear"?

The Klingons are a mighty warrior race, proud and driven by honor and valor in battle. They also love wine (blood wine, but wine none the less), dress up like leather drag queens and do not allow females on the High Council (interesting). They love Opera, and quote Shakespeare.

The bowels of their capital city are the perfect seedy areas where you would have found any American gay bar in the 70s and 80s. And every secret rendezvous arranged on their home planet of Kronos always happens in these areas (again, interesting).

When female Klingons do force their ways into positions of power, they are almost always bull-dykey:



Despite their menacing ways, the males are often very thoughtful, with genuine affection for the persons (read male) they respect. And their space craft are always very tidy and orderly.

I believe there must be Gay and Lesbian Klingons. They may need to stay underground, but I am sure they exist (and probably have fabulous parties).

Q'apla!!

hmm, i must say i dont like the klingon 'thing' that they are all warriors, like i hate the fact Ferengi are all greedy, crafty etc

Star Trek is so full of stereotypes it's stupid sometimes, and i kinda grew away from it

so, in answer to your question - i guess anyone not doing the accepted "klingon" way would have a real hard time?
