  The present paper is composed of two parts. In the first one we define two
pseudo-metrics $L_F$ and $K_F$ on the Teichmu\"uller space of semi-translation
surfaces $\mathcal{TQ}_g(\underline k,\epsilon)$, which are the symmetric
counterparts to the metrics defined by William Thurston on $\mathcal{T}_g^n$.
We prove some nice properties of $L_F$ and $K_F$, most notably that they are
complete pseudo-metrics. In the second part we define their asymmetric
analogues $L_F^a$ and $K_F^a$ on $\mathcal{T Q}_g^{(1)}(k, \epsilon)$ and prove
that their equality depends on two statements regarding 1-Lipschitz maps
between polygons. We are able to prove the first statement, but the second one
remains a conjecture: nonetheless, we explain why we believe it is true.
