For me I thought that Dr. Crusher would become a stronger character when she was in command of the Enterprise. However that fell through. Then it became to me that in every movie her role became less and less. Meaning what was the point in having her in the movies at all. But I have to agree with Mr. Baxter, Jadzia was the best female character out of the whole series. --Lavender If you don't like vanilla, try some chocolate.

I thought they took a few steps forward with Janeway, but blew it to hell with the way they handled Seven’s overbearing story on the show. Sigh….. I know.

That character had so much > unexplored potential Most of the women of Trek had unexplored potential but it seemed for the most part that unless they could be paired with a male any of their other potential was left to the imagination. Trek does not do women well. Its either ultra butch or ultra fem, with very few glimpses of anything in between. They always forget just how strong a female following they have.
