reasons why riker is a good man:
- actively anti sexist
- anti transphobia
- funny lad
- slut (in the best way possible)
- in that episode where they asked him to put on that skimpy outfit and it was perfectly set up for him to be all “nO i’m a Man” he just LAUGHED AND DID IT WITHOUT COMPLAINT
- bi icon you can fight me on this
- anti bigot in general
- genuinely friendly guy
- plays trombone (however mediocre it is)
- doesnt let past relationships interrupt his work and is totally cool to everyone he’s dating— this man respects boundaries
thank you
- One day he woke up and they were like “You have a son now” and he was like “Oh shit I’m gonna love him with all my heart”
- Everyone’s older brother
- Doesn’t get jealous of Troi’s poorly-written one-off love interests
