** A minor case, but Kirk's comment that there was nothing wrong with Charlie that wasn't wrong with "every other human male." If the episode came out today he almost certainly would have specified "heterosexual male." While you could argue the comment is equally applicable to gay men, it does ignore asexual men.

** A similarly meant-to-be-creepy-but-actually-kind-of-funny moment comes when Charlie turns one of the women on the ship into an iguana. While certainly not a pleasant experience for the poor girl, there's just something very silly about the camera panning down to show a plain old lizard just chilling on the floor where the woman once was.
