Hmm... has anyone ever noticed - practically all the judges in Star Trek are women?
There's Philippa Louvois in The Measure of a Man, Norah Satie in The Drumhead, Els Renora in Dax, Makbar in Tribunal, T'Lara in Rules of Engagement... can anyone think of any more? Or any male examples to balance them out?
Even in the Original Series there was a female prosecutor, Areel Shaw, although in that case the judge was male.
I dunno, I quite like the idea that in the future, law becomes, for whatever reason, a female-dominated profession.

Hee, yes, that episode is just made of win generally. Now I kind of want to have some kind of queer DS9 marathon. Hmm… thinking about it, that could be a fun variation on a rewatch community…
Ah, the legendary Captain Boday! There should be fic. I wonder if there is?
Ooh, I look forward with interest to that post!
