Quote from prometheus 59650:
My only annoyance with it? When did Spock become so casual about Vulcan mating practices that he just starts spitting details to a blonde bimbette he barely knows.
There is no blonde bimbette in TOS "The Cloud Minders."
Lovely Droxine is a cultured member of what Spock describes as "a totally intellectual society", though she's naive toward ugly realities which have been skewed by the Stratos class-system. Nonetheless, Droxine is shown to question their rigid protocol ("Father, are we so sure of our methods that we never question what we do?")
Spock truthfully affirms Droxine's query of something she'd heard about Vulcan sex. Spock recognizes Droxine's coy romantic interest, to which he responds with the kind of emotional intelligence and charm that's written for Sarek toward Amanda in "Journey to Babel."

Quote from prometheus 59650:
They barely want discuss it with people who are already familiar with it.
Most people are more sexual toward a potential mate than toward a friend. There's nothing in TOS to suggest that Vulcans behave otherwise.
Spock lets Droxine know that her "extreme feminine beauty" is "disturbing" to him. Spock's attention to Droxine has the personal manner that he also shows toward beautiful Zarabeth in "All Our Yesterdays". Both of these females appeal to Spock, as more than just friends.
Spock sees that the Stratos class-system has created a misunderstanding of the harsh planet below, so he reminds Droxine of the beauty in all knowledge. She speaks only about visiting the mines, not becoming a zienite digger...
Spock: "There is great beauty in the knowledge that lies below, and only one way to really experience it."
Droxine: "I shall go to the mines. I no longer wish to be limited to the clouds."

Quote from prometheus 59650:
So Droxine was a potential mate? No.
Of course she is. Spock answers Droxine's coy question about sex by implying that her extreme feminine beauty could disturb his Vulcan mating cycle!
Spock is written to show immediate admiration for "a totally intellectual society", which makes Droxine "worthy" of interest from a brainy Vulcan.
