Human rights? The very name is racist.

Does Tuvix have two species, or none?

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

we don't let tuvixen reproduce. it's in the charter.

[-] Steve@communick.news 5 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I would say none.
Maybe to be a member of a species requires at least a history of a single breeding pair?

[-] charonn0@startrek.website 5 points 1 week ago

Not all species reproduce sexually. Not all sexual reproduction involves pairs.

"A single Tuvix is a curiosity. A wonder, even. But thousands of Tuvixes -- isn't that becoming a race?"

Tertiary question: we know that Vulcans/Romulans were descendents of the Progenitors, but are Talaxians?

If not, it might not be technically possible for them to interbreed at all, meaning that a Vulcan/Talaxian hybrid could never occur naturally, and also that Tuvix would probably be genetically incompatible with everything and everyone. Therefore, no species - only an anomaly produced by a freak transporter accident.
