I wish to draw your attention to this:
At no point, even in private, do Sarek and Amanda hug or kiss. But they
do touch hands, fairly frequently, several times, both in public and
private. Apparently, touching hands together is the accepted way for
Vulcans to express couple-togetherness.
I draw attention to this fact, because some boneheads say that Kirk and
Spock can't be lovers because we never saw them kiss. Well, we never saw
Sarek and Amanda kiss, either. They show love the same way that Kirk and
Spock show love to each other: with hand contact, and with acts of fond
devotion.

Just because we haven't seen something doesn't mean it happened or
hasn't happened. Your logic is faulty. Again.

Here's another couple of examples of a "monster", being lovingly
handled, by TOS
The "Companion" of _Metamorphosis_
http://www.allyourtrekarebelongto.us/metamorph.htm
Kolos, of _Is There In Truth No Beauty?_
http://www.allyourtrekarebelongto.us/truth.htm
If Kirk can respect such creatures, I do expect the people of this NG to
be able to respect me. Monster or not, I am an intelligent creature,
and I mean no harm. :)
