#Jim was being such a thotty tho
Anyone else out here thinking about how in TOS Jim is all smooth and hairless like some kind of Greek statue aesthetic, but then he switches it up in TMP?
He is a character who enjoys switching up his aesthetic, style and wardrobe. We love to see a diverse queen. Jim can rock a lot of different looks. 
Exhibit A: TOS (Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry believed men of the future would have “little or no body hair”):

Then in TMP he has arm hair. He also abruptly busts out a v-neck once Spock comes aboard to show off a lil' chest hair . . .

Legit. He is in a full body long-sleeved jumpsuit up to his Adam's apple when he first boards the Enterprise:

Spock is on board for a grand total of ten seconds before Jim busts out his gun show and tiddies:

Oh. This sudden wardrobe swap coincidentally just so happens to happen right before inviting Spock to a private meeting in the Captain's quarters with McCoy.
Jim is the only one who does a wardrobe swap btw, Spock and McCoy are still in the same garb. So it couldn’t even be justified with a “passage of time”, this is just Jim being extra.

He goes from feetie pajamas:

to Gawddayum-as.

Like FYI Spock, this is the appetizer. There's been some changes around here since you been gone.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Wanna see?
