Internet, can we have a talk? A long, angry talk.
So it sounds like the rumors of a female doctor, much to my disappointment, are probably untrue. Ah well. A girl can dream. What really bothers me though are the reactions I’ve been seeing. There are some legitimate reactions, like the fact that Moffat seems to… occasionally struggle with handling female characters. Most of what I see, however, has been this.
1. It’s always been that way!
One of the best things about Doctor Who is that is changes. It used to be a black and white educational show about a crabby old dude, his granddaughter, and his granddaughter’s captured teachers. Heck, the new show killed the Doctor’s entire race and planet. Giving him boobs is hardly the largest change, and it’s certainly an interesting one. Not changing because things haven’t changed yet is hardly compelling, especially since the show was started in a time when women had a lot less respect than they do today. It has already been canonically mentioned that timelord can change genders, and plenty of spin-offs have already played with the idea.
2. Male Doctor and Female Companion: Time tested and true.
What about Jamie? What about Turlough? What about Adric? They all managed to fantastic characters with no chance of romantic tension. Heck, so did pretty much every female character in old who before the romantic element was introduced. Looking at the new show, look at Donna. She was a fantastic companion, and the relationship wouldn’t have changed at all if the doctor had been female. They would have remained awesome friends. In fact, that was one of my favorite companion dynamics.
3. Would totally change the character!
HOW?! The Doctor is a quirky, wonderful, badass alien who is filled with understanding and the weight of a thousand galaxies. His/her body is not the most important part of his character. The addition of a vagina would not suddenly change who s/he was.
4. OMG LESBIANS! THINK OF THE CHILDREN!
A) Okay, I have to admit this is the one I find the most offensive. What’s the big deal? Lesbians aren’t inherently inappropriate. The children would be okay, I swear.
B) On a show that stars Jack Harkness, you’re really worried that the Doctor, who is fairly mundane in flirtation, is going to make the show too gay? Or is it just ladies that freak you out?
5. But the doctor is sexy and mine!
Honestly, this is where a lot of the female backlash is seems to be coming from. It’s disappointing. I like to think, as fans, we watch this show because we love it for the complex plot, the interesting ideas, and the huge explosions. It’s okay to be a bit disappointed to lose your eye-candy, but if you’d stop watching a show just because of that, I have trouble believing you’re much of a fan.
Wow yeah I knew this was going to happen when those rumors started
Doesn’t stop it from being really sad
They’re always brave
