Page "Cardassian" Paragraph 12

Cardassians tend to be predatory in nature, like wolves always seeking a dominant position in social gatherings.

In normal courting behavior, Cardassian couples routinely act bitter and snap at each other.

Cardassian society generally exhibits little or no sexual bias ; for example, both men and women can rise to high ranks in the military.

However, some fields are not so diverse, as the scientific community is mostly female.

( It was implied in the episode " Destiny " that males are inept at engineering endeavors, but this could just be bias: probably most males take up military careers, leaving the scientific field open to women.

) When representatives of the science ministry visited DS9 in " Destiny ", they were noticeably less nationalistic than most Cardassians seen previously.
