They'd likely have similar technology with their touchscreens as well do ours. It's not meant to react against any pressure, but only recognizes conductive material.

And Starfleet would make sure NOT to have the ass of their uniforms made of that kind of material for these exact reasons

    Boimler did say Starfleet is always updating and improving them. Maybe that's why they changed on the D. Riker forced them to invent anti-console padding

    Do they use condoms in Star Trek? I presume there would be a much better standard for birth control and disease prevention by that point.
