Despite the generally PG-13 nature of the various Star Trek series, apparently there was plenty of stuff going on that was intended for more mature audiences! Then again, there's always been those stories about the relationship between Kirk and Spock.

And from the "When Worlds Collide" department comes an interesting tidbit combining several of my favorite topics; Star Trek, sex, & politics. It seems that Barack Obama may owe some of his success to Star Trek alumnus Jeri Ryan. Her ex-husband Jack (no, NOT the Tom Clancy one) was running for Congress in '04 when the records from their divorce proceedings became public, which included details about his attempts to force her to have public sex in swingers clubs. He dropped out of the race soon after this revelation and was replaced by Alan Keyes, who Obama defeated in a landslide.
