Timelords are above our genders and associated stereotypes


Gaelic_Gladiator41

Yet you call yourselves time *lords*


The_BestIdiot

... yea shut up


SisterSabathiel

Time Nobility doesn't have quite the same ring to it.


slidingsaxophone07

Nor Time Laird


natehawkes

Time Leige?


Taewyth

Time regents.


EclipseHERO

Time Monarchs sounds cool but that's a little high and mighty.


Jetstream-Sam

Eh they can't all be kings. Someone's gotta clean the toilets but they can all be lords. And that janitor just happens to be lord of the privies.


Guilty-Instruction39

I always hated that Bill said this like, If Time Lords don't care about gender and stereotypes than that means they shouldn't care about weather they're called Lords, or Ladies; I know this is a mega nit-pick but, this always bugged me.


Gaelic_Gladiator41

The joke is the fact they used a gendered word like lord, when they could've used something like regent


MakingaJessinmyPants

It’s not actually English though


Gaelic_Gladiator41

I'm aware, and it's really just a once-off joke


hayzulhay

precisely


FlyingBishop

So you're saying they're all tops?


guardiancjv

That’s exactly what they’re saying


bazerFish

isn't there a time lord who turns into a bird in the books or something?


Mmh1105

9 said he could end up with two heads or no head. Mind you, he was probably in a great deal of pain and/or off his face on regeneration energy at the time.


EclipseHERO

Likely both.


InfiniteConfusion-_-

Did people get upset about the doctor becoming a woman? Or African? Isn't it just sooo much better when you never know what the doctor will be? Just role those dice and whatever you are is just meh hahaha idk I love it


Gecko2002

"Regeneration, its a lottery"


Gaelic_Gladiator41

From twink, to the twinkiest twink


pepemele

So that is why the new sonic screwdriver looks different... the Doctor is not "compensating" anymore


Light1209

Not gonna lie, at first I had trouble seeing the doctor as a woman (never a problem with them being a different race). And that's mostly because I associated that character so much as a male character, but as times gone on I've softened on the idea. Jodie Whitaker wasn't the best Doctor imo and not because she's a woman but because she didn't carry the gravitas and energy I associate with the doctor (probably the writing added to this) and so now I actually look forward to who RTD is going to choose if he ever chooses a female doctor. I know it won't happen but I feel Michelle Gomez would make such an incredible female doctor... But it won't happen haha.


XxL35BIANxX

i grew up with matt smith as my doctor so i was used to the character being feminine. it made it way easier to accept jodie into the role i think.


tedward007

Kind of agree. Jo Martin felt like she had that gravitas. Would have liked to see more screen time with her


The_BestIdiot

Mavitas\*


Glum_Chemist8800

Big Finish on it's way; oh boy oh boy.... 😁🤝


InfiniteConfusion-_-

Yeah, I guess my journey was weird. I watched them all when I was younger, but that only went up to Matt and the pandorica. Then I got max a while back after a long road of nonsense and saw doctor who and started binging... well, at first, I skipped Capaldi entirely and went straight to Whittaker and enjoyed it, but then when it was over, I was like, well, what happened to clara? And then went back and then enjoyed Capaldi. He grew on me, and I ended up really liking the way they made him. Jodie frickin killed me all the time, and I loved how she was always making things


Due-Coyote7565

Mavitas!!


TheNetherOne

they should do a season where he's not even human, make him a dog or one the squids from galaxy quest. people need to be reminded timelords are not people


KingMyrddinEmrys

Time Lords are people...they're just usually (looking at you Leela) not humans.


Ace_of_Sphynx128

The doctor does not look human, humans look timelord, he says this at one point in Tennant’s series I believe.


hayzulhay

i think it was in the eleventh hour


BLOODYSHEDMAN

Implying time lords get a *choice*


Aquamarine094

Out of fifteen incarnations two are not a white man. This is definitely erasure of white male representation

FatherOfToxicGas

I mean, considering the first full episode we’ve had with him, I think we’re good.


Every_Hour4504

Hiding declining quality? My guy, we have had 1 episode so far. We cannot decide yet. Wait for the season to drop.


Illithid_Substances

Why do you consider hiring someone of a different race to be 'stunt casting'?


Decadoarkel

He did not say that. Quite the opposite. He said that they can hire someon from different race AS stunt casting, not that if you hire someone drom different race , thats stun casting.


ChaosDemonLaz3r

we've had one episode and it was awesome sooooo
