If you submitted something last week (Aug 26-Sept 1), please resubmit it here and it will still go up this week.

Re: Doctor Who 7x01 Discussion! SPOILERS AHOY

Amy is also now infertile which means no more babbies ever because it's not like the human race has been coming up with ways for infertile couples to have kids for thousands of years, nope.

And it's not like some infertility just can't be treated, nope, or like adoption is a difficult process where not all couples are approved and the process itself can strain or even break marriages, nope. All those childless couples in the UK who desperately want kids but can't have them just must not want them badly enough.

To say nothing of the emotional fallout of finding she is infertile, which is what's really eating Amy up, nope, that obviously isn't real either.

Re: Doctor Who 7x01 Discussion! SPOILERS AHOY

[kathkin]

Except the episode presented it as if Amy being fertile meant they could never have kids, ever. They did not address any of the options that are potentially open to Amy and Rory.

And if Moffat wanted us to think it was a matter of emotional fallout over being infertile then he should have made that clearer rather than having pretty much all she had to say on the subject be an awkward, expositiony, 'as you know' speech.

I seriously have no idea how you read all that into my comment. o_o

I thought it was very clear, because if they had discussed it properly earlier then Rory would have already known that was the problem. Seriously, their discussion (while telescoped down) was similar to issues that infertile couples I personally know have had. It is actually how actual people in that situation have been known to act and feel (which is not to say it is how all such couples act). To say that it's not a good reason to act or feel that way doesn't stop it from being how real people act and feel.

Re: Doctor Who 7x01 Discussion! SPOILERS AHOY

[kathkin]

I think it's the telescoping that was the problem for me. There just wasn't enough time for the issues to be played out properly and given that it's Moffat I don't think they ever will be, and as a result it came across very strangely to me, and probably to anyone else who hasn't actually been involved in a situation like that personally.

But yeah. I didn't actually think of it that way and your reading definitely makes the whole thing more palatable to me, so thanks.
