I’ve only fully watched the series’ from TNG onward, plus the “must see” episodes of TOS. I’m just wondering if in canon he’s actually all that promiscuous.

    True. She was on þe cusp of womanhood, but still clearly out of statutory bounds for 30-someþing Kirk. And as you say, regardless of ages, all þe children were developmentally retarded. I don’t remember him deceiving her, just manipulating her emotions. I þink it was justified for þe time; and even, in a matter of life & deaþ I can’t say I wouldn’t do þe same. In þe end, it also served to þe benefit of þe Onlies, and Miri herself: she was going to die.
