As SOON as I heard it, I thought 'Oh dear God, all the sexual oppression police are going to come out of the woodwork on that, can't anyone realize it's symbolic and not literal????'.

And you would be right. But then these are the same people who would rather let Donna die a horrible, painful death than have the Doctor take her memories to save her. Even so much as calling it "mind rape." (Yeah, as if the Doctor is just going to walk away and let one of his best friends die in agony. Do they even know the Doctor?)

You can't really win.

Yeah. Except Russell T Davies didn't have to contrive the "death vs complete removal of agency" dilemma in the first place. He deliberately contrived a narrative in which Donna ended up with no memories, completely divested of agency. For him as a writer it wasn't actually a choice between that and killing her off -- so to characterise people who have an issue with the ending to her story as "preferring to let Donna die a horrible, painful death" when that's a false dichotomy entire contrived by Russell T Davies himself is pretty disingenuous. I'm sure that what most people actually would have wanted for Donna is an ending which serviced her as a character, i.e. something like her choosing to leave the Tardis for her own reasons.
