They do look familiar because they are related. One's a Hot Blooded branch, whilst the others have adopted a Cold as Ice approach to life. Common origins, different stylists.

Will Wheaton is a cool dude, Met him last year at PAX, he's really a down to earth guy, and yeah, he's a "man" now but he'll forever be immortalized by his role in that show.

That's because they're descended from a common ancestor--they just went very very different directions.

EDIT: I guess Leto already answered this question...missed the second page.

And somewhere I still have some BOP magazines from the late 80s with Wil Wheaton posters, lol.

So, why is it assumed that because the standard romulan military hair cut looks like shit it's an immutable feature or the race? Could be they have some kick ass hair cuts back on the home world.

And if I had to go wit one of the choices give, I'll take the forehead of doom, though I would rather go all out with a borg eye laser thing. total bad ass

I keep up to date on it on the off chance you ever come to a Cubs game. We can only talk about beer and how much the Yankees suck for so long. I know gay porn occupies the majority of your waking moments, so it's something for us to talk about.

And the kid from The Toy was in straight porn, as I remember. JJ's just seeing the beard and thinking about "jail pussy". You know how HE is.

Interesting conundrum. On the one hand, while the haircut is permanent, no mention was made of plastic surgery to correct the Klingon/Ferengi deformities, so I must assume that this is allowed. However, if these disfigurements are widespread among the population, the Romulan haircut might become fashionable. This would mean choosing it would save you a lot of time,effort, and money on haircare. While a ridged forehead would be useful for headbutting, I can't imagine that behavior would become socially acceptable, so that's of dubious usefulness. But big ears would improve your hearing, and there's no harm in having one more erogenous zone.
Overall, I think the ears are the best choice.

I already have very 'sensitive' ears (as in the slightest touch can be arousing), so I'd go with Ferengi. Just watch the ears, ladies, unless you want more Robot than you can handle.

The physical appearance question isn't as interesting as "which species/society in Star Trek would you want to be a member of?" I'd absolutely love to visit Vulcan and learn their various cultural aspects and practices. The fact that an atheistic, logical, and essentially emotionless society holds so firmly to it's rich cultural heritage is absolutely fascinating.

However I do feel it's necessary to point out that not all Romulan women have that haircut - take the commander who tried to seduce Spock to defect to the Romulan Star Empire

I googled images of all 3.

I'm sure the ferengi thing is just the sweetest thing to ever walk the planet Earth, but man does it look nasty!

I was looking at the klingon images with a toddler on my lap, when she pointed to this one and said "It's Mama! It's baby's mama!" So I guess I'll go with this one.

If you're going to reason about it that way, then you're already ferengi, big ears are just the icing on the funny looking cake.
