Message Type: text To: Senior Staff From: Areel Shaw When: 2259.188 [07/07] -- mid-Alpha shift Subject: Upcoming First Contact Mission
Starfleet was kind enough to supply me with the reports filed by the civilian scientists who crash landed on Angel one. Apparently the matriarchal nature of their society was greatly understated by Starfleet Command; according to the reports, only the female among them was treated as an equal party and the men were looked at almost like... pets.
My advice is for the away team to be comprised solely of female officers. And, since this is a solely political mission, consider this my formal request to join the team on this mission. I think I could be an asset where Starfleet procedure is concerned. Not to mention how amazing it would be to see a matriarchal society in action. Please think about it.
