Re: I don't feel like making this a secret, so here

[(Anonymous)]

I heard a great fan theory once that when the Time Lords forced the Doctor regenerate from Two into Three, this damaged him to the point that he no longer had much - if any - control over his regeneration. This explains why he seems so upset about his appearance when he first wakes up as Three - it is not at all what he would have chosen had he the chance to control it.

I like to think that for a Time Lord to change into something very different (like the Corsair becoming a woman or River changing her race) conscious control is required and in the absence of that control, the regeneration defaults to something that isn't super-super-different from the way the Time Lord was before.

As for why the Doctor would chose to become a non-white woman... out of curiosity? Shits and giggles? After all those centuries as a white man, one would think he might want to experiment a bit. We know not all Gallifreyans are white and that switching one's sex is possible for Time Lords, so there's no reason for the Doctor not to become a non-white woman unless he physically can't due to lack of control. Of course, that assumes he wants to experiment like that. I know that if I could regenerate, I might want to change my sex just to see what it's like, knowing I could go back again the next time around. Not everyone would be comfortable with that, though, and that is okay. This might be one area where the Doctor isn't very curious or daring, or maybe he's so used to being a white dude that he sees it as an immutable part of his identity. Or maybe Thirteen will be different, who knows?
