I want to live in a world where a person like Kor can accept a person like Dax.

    If we are being pedantic, Trills are a bad analogy for transsexuals. Every new Trill host is a brand new person with only the memories (with some extras) of the previous hosts. This distinction is emphasized in several episodes. So while Klingons are rather hyper-traditionalists, they can’t really complain about a person having another person’s memories.

      FWIW I agree, but I would say imperfect instead, on account of the many trans people I have heard say they related in some ways.

      Complain? No. But they shure as shit treat them as is they were the same individual in those memories. It even causes problems.
