    Women are dominant, men are subservient

    Every woman has a dream house making class distinctions irrelevant

    Government that doesn’t take bribes

    All women ALWAYS wear clothes

    Nah, if Barbieland is anyone’s hell it’s Ferengi hell

      Why not both?

      After all, I suspect neither Klingons nor Ferengi would enjoy hanging out together for eternity.

    > want to die in battle

    > uses cloaking device to sneak around instead of bravely charging at flanking speed into battle

    Cowardly Klingons are just the galaxy’s blowhards. At least the Romulans are upfront on being sneaky bastards.

      Serious response: Old Klingons never used cloaks.

      At some point, different houses gained influence in the Council and they started taking pages (and technology) from the Romulan playbook under the guise of expanding Imperial glory. Most Klingons just went along with it.

      Klingon beliefs fall in and out of favor depending on who’s in charge. Something that they go into a lot of detail with on TNG and DS9.

      Deception is a key part of a good battle strategy.

      Glorious battle involves just as much outsmarting your enemy as overpowering them.

      After all, while there is much honor in dying a good death, there is more honor in giving the enemy an okay death.
