I looked it up on memory alpha, but unfortunately could only find two Daxs (? Daxes? Dax'?) of whom we know their respective spouses, Audrid (female host, had a husband) and Torias (male host, had a wife).

I checked memory beta(which includes non-canon but licensed work like some comics, Star-Trek Online and similar) and here's a list of hosts with known information about spouse or child(ren):

  • Lela, 1st host, 21st century: Wife with husband, two children.

  • Tobin, 22nd century: Male trill with one child, no spouse listed.

  • Audrid, 23rd century: Wife with symbiont husband, two children.

  • Torias, 23rd century: Husband with symbiont wife

::: spoiler Spoiler: Are you sure you only found those last two?

  • Jadzia, 24th century: Wife with husband :::

The info box lists six marriages and nine children. So I'm guessing not everything is accurate or not all sub-pages updated.

  • Jadzia, 24th century: Wife with husband

I just misremembered. Thought she died right before their wedding.

[Lighthearted] Aren't most trans people non hierarchical unmarried polyamorists?

I thought we were an autonomous collective?

[Genuine] What would that mean?

Septimaeus@infosec.pub · 3 pts · 1y (5 replies)

I think it’s an umbrella term for some types of self-governance like anarcho-syndicalism, but I was teasing in reference to a scene from Monty Puthon and the Holy Grail: https://tube.mint.lgbt/watch?v=ACvXR0sQDkM

My relationship is poly non-hierarchical and unmarried though, so while I can’t speak for everyone, that does sound accurate to me :)

Alt Text:

Two members of the TV Show Star Trek: Deep Space Nine are having a conversation, Jadzia Dax and Chief O'Brien.

Jadzia Dax asks "Wife problems, Chief?"

"How did you know?" Chief O'Brien replies.

Jadzia goes on to say, "Well, I've been a husband and I've been a wife, and I know that look from both sides."
