One of the most compelling episodes of original Star Trek is Mudd's Women. Introducing Harry Mudd - who'd later guest in another memorable ep, I, Mudd - the tale dealt in the raw sexuality of 3 women. Harry was a con man, flim flam man or pimp - depending on your point of view - and he 'managed' three beautiful women in their social skills.
The tale posits the notion of these gals - escorts, companions, prostitutes, geisha, or all of them combined - mentored by the ever clever and profiteering Mudd. Harry Mudd's women took an aphrodisiac substance called the Venus Drug - making them alluring to men.
