Boobs and bras? Purple, do you think that's what us women talk about??

The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

Wtf? And what if there were? Dude, I've read your 'love scene' so surely you don't feel uncomfortable about and mention of breasts? Hey if we're lucky we might get a few funnies about the menstrual cycle thrown in for good measure cos no sci fi show is complete without quips about the female anatomy and functionality right?
I love a good talk about bras and boobs! I have a 12 and a 13 year old girl - our house is always talking about boobs and bras and menstruation!![]()
Do a little of something that makes you happy every day!
I agree that the decision to cast a female doctor has probably come about from the push on representation but there is a REASON they're pushing that... because it's needed. New iconic characters who are female are hard to create, because wide-spread popularity takes time. Creating new shows, selling new books by new authors - this is a risk for TV companies and publishers. We're fighting against literally hundreds of years of strong and inspiring main characters being men in almost every single story that's become part of our cultural consciousness - from Beowulf to King Arthur to Gandalf to Phillip Marlowe to Atticus Finch to James Bloody Bond. So if the BBC want to take a character that has traditionally presented as male (Remember the whole premise of the Doctor is that s/he changes pretty frequently!) then I embrace that as about bloody time!
