    As a woman older than you, with a mother and aunts of Lwaxana’s age, I found it painfully misogynistic.

    All the more so because Picard (and Roddenberry himself) were continually chasing after younger women and nothing was made of it.

    I actually am reconciled to Lwaxana and love the much-reviled episode ‘Cost of Living’ but the amount of continuing ridicule and hate she gets from younger male fans drives home the misogyny.

    Meanwhile they’re all cool with Picard with Vash.
