Rocklobster, you must not have watched much of the show at all. The Dax symbiont is neither male nor female, but gets transferred to a new Trill host when the old Trill host dies. So "Dax" was Curzon Dax, and then Curzon died. (That's why Captain Sisko calls Dax "old man" -- he was good friends with Curzon Dax.) Dax was transferred to a new host, Jadzia. Then Ezri. Dax had a total of 10 hosts, but never "became a man" during the course of the show. The gender of the Trill host really doesn't matter to the symbiont. It might seem like a "taboo" thing, but if you think about the "science" behind it, it really isn't. I found it very interesting.
After six seasons on DS9, Farrell was presented with the chance to join the Paramount comedy sitcom Becker. Instead of renewing her original contract for DS9 for one more season, she left and joined the cast of Becker in 1998 where she stayed for four years playing the character of Reggie Costas. There were many rumors as to why Farrell left DS9; some believed she wanted more money, there were differences with producers, or she had arguments with fellow cast members.
After leaving Deep Space Nine, Farrell stated that, if asked, she would love to return to Star Trek to play Jadzia as a clone, Jadzia from another universe or a hologram. She also stated she grew greatly from playing Dax and that she wouldn't change a second of her time with Star Trek.
EireWolf wrote:The writers of DS9 didn't intend to write Jadzia out of the storyline. Terry Farrell declined to renew her contract.
