        In my experience, men only demand to see a male Doctor if they're embarrassed about a problem with their schlong.

        To all the people upset: don't worry, nobody cares how you feel. She's a great actor and will be awesome in the role.

        Loving the mindset where time travel, shapeshifting and living 900 years is a-okay but female lead is just too gosh darned weird.

        I'm old enough to have watched Dr Who from episode one and I celebrate this decision. It's passion that defines the Doctor, not gender 😊
