No wonder that it's a taboo among the stiff Surakians when it's so intimately tied to their sex life! It could remain such a taboo with the Romulans for the same reason, even if they are a bit more easygoing about letting their emotions carry them. It's probably something that long precedes Surakian logic or even sentient thought. Also Odo & 7 of 9 used the nerve pinch!Ĭlick to expand.Remember that telepathy plays an important role in Vulcan mate-finding, and probably in other aspects of procreation as well. Being Picard performed the nerve pinch in (TNG "Starship Mine"). The Vulcan nerve pinch is a form of martial technique, anyone who is properly trained can do this and is not limited to strickly vulcans. There have been nothing shown that the Romulans posses any telepathic abilities unlike there cousins the Vulcans, which is needed to perform a mind meld. Vulcans evolved on a planet which is mostly desert, as far as we know the Romulans did not. (TNG: "The Enemy")Īlso we know Vulcans possess much greater physical strength then humans, Romulans have shown that they are at least equal in strength to humans. Crusher's failed attempt to treat a Romulan, who had suffered advanced synaptic breakdown, with methods that are used successfully to treat Vulcans. We also know that over time both the Romulans and Vulcans do look differently, so the same can be said that changes happened internally and mentally. Emotions were to be controlled and repressed. The only reason Vulcans changed is because the teaching of Surak which were based purely on logical principles. Due to this, its more then likely why Romulans are still violent and emotional. It was a time when Vulcans were once an extremely violent and emotional people (even by Earth standards) who waged almost constant warfare on one another (TOS "Balence of Terror"). We know that the Vulcan and Romulans are cousins, centuries ago some vulcans left when there homeworld centuries ago when the Vulcan was at war with itself.
