    This is the episode where your parents would walk in. “What are you doing, I thought you were watching Star Trek?”

      This happened to me during the movie Species. Mind you, not during any of the Natasha Henstridge boobage, but my dad walked in at the part in the seedy motel where the lady scientist gets on her knees to blow Michael Madsen.

          Edit: I should watch DS9 apparently. I’ll get there. Someday.

          A quick Google gave me this:

          It was his idea that it was by law that no female Ferengi could even own clothing, let alone wear it. The fact that women are not allowed to make profits was decided early on. It’s almost like [a] Victorian industrial revolution kind of attitude toward women, which is they should be home, taking care of kids and they shouldn’t even be wearing clothes because that just gets in the way and it costs money. There’s no profit in that!

          Thank God they changed that

            They didn’t change it, that’s was the official lore.

            What they did do was use DS9 and Quark’s mother Moogie to write a suffragette movement subplot which gave Ferangi women equal rights over time.

            They played with it in DS9.

            Quark is disgusted his mom is a “twisted degenerate” that campaigns for (Ferengi) women’s rights and wears clothes around the house and such.

            The real lore is ferengi have HUGE gonads. I’m talking visibly noticeable bulge.
