Maybe he just didn't feel like being a girl right then. And now the Doctor does.

Which is fair enough. Though I personally would rather see a good female character in her own merit, not swapping the Doctor to female just because.

Why does making a female Doctor stop them from making other good female characters

I feel like I'm losing my fucking mind repeating this but

It doesn't technically in a world of logic, but if they swap a MAIN FUCKING CHARACTER to female then I really do feel like there's a huge chance we'll lose all the awesome female companions/minor characters and suddenly they'll be guys, because hey, 'we already have an awesome female character'.

I'm not saying it WOULD happen, and it definitely SHOULDN'T happen, but to me it's a concern.

I get the concern but it seems to me like that's a case of "sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof"?

(Anonymous) 2017-05-23 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
Probably? And like I said, I would totally still watch a female Doctor (if they didn't fucking butcher the character in doing so), but I really do have concerns. Especially considering peoples' reactions to Missy.

(Anonymous) 2017-05-23 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
That would be the butchering of the character. To do so would butcher the character; do you finally get it?

*shrug* I like Missy. I didn't particularly like Simm!Master. I don't feel either of them are written too differently to be honest. Both are a little off the deep end, both have a thing for the Doctor. So I don't personally consider Missy 'butchering' the character that was the Master anymore than Simm!Master was different than Roger Delgado or Anthony Ainley. All of the Doctors themselves, the portrayals have been varying even if core beliefs (protection) remain the same. I wouldn't object to a woman Doctor as long as she still had those 'core' Doctor beliefs and as long as they wrote her as The Doctor and not, A Woman Doctor.

Well that would just make her Romana or Sarah Jane, so, we're back to butchering the character again.

DA

"It's butchering a character because I don't like it" has been your entire argument.

(Anonymous) 2017-05-23 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
I mean, they already made the Doctor openly bi

I don't think people will be up in arms about a female companion with a female doctor

Can confirm; you lost your mind and are just repeating this ad nauseam.


You got the symptom and the cause mixed up, prolly cause you lost your mind.
