When we met one of his wives, it made perfect sense to me! They just have women who are forward. Phlox is just more passive in pursuing sex.
When Phlox asked Trip if his wife had offered a bath, I figured that meant that his wife, while flirting, had toned it down to play nice with the humans. So she was either being playful and ‘coy’ for their species, or, and I know this is silly… I assume Phlox had told her about Trip and his constant ‘perfect gentleman’ thing and she decided to have a little fun.
And let me be honest - I’m somewhat of a sexually forward woman myself. I may not be interested in very many people (demi), and I might not be poly, but once I am interested in someone, I’m quite up front about it.
