Fan reaction the Day BBC announces the Doctor is Regenerating as a woman..
Always a bad idea to try an speak on behalf of what the "Fans" will feel about something. It does rather smack of, "If I think it, then everyone must think it." (It's also trying to tell anyone who doesn't agree that they're not really a Fan.)
I am free to speak what I please within reason, if you took my comment that way, then that sounds like a personal problem to me..
let me amend this, I don't want to get on anyone's bad side here.. I was merely being tongue and cheek with my comment, and NO, I DIDN'T SAY ALL FANS, just fans.. so take it for what you will there.. but on the other side of the coin, and with My humble opinion, I don't see the BBC ever going that route unless out of desperation or some fundamental social Justice campaign to get a woman behind the console... which is just absurd.. In the mind of the BBC execs, or just logically speaking why would you change a formula that for the past 50 years has worked, and shown to work well just for the sake of saying we had a woman? It doesn't make financial sense to me.. but that is just me..
you may and have a differing opinion, that is fine, but I never said I speak for all fans, and if you took it that way, again, that is ALL on You.. I will not apologize for you reading into a comment clearly meant in fun, and not a serious commentary on all fans.. stop being so picky and touchy about what you read..
But what's funny is Moffat said mostly women said no to a female doctor, and in addition Peter Davidson also said the same, in the UK daily mail Back in 2013 when this subject was at its height.
The reality is that there is a constant push by a minority to always get the majority to aqueous to their demands. This political correct behavior is destructive to traditional institutions, and when adhered to and it fails, the reaction of the majority rejecting the minority demands, the minority always resort to denigrating either by calling the majority sexist, white washers, bigots, homofobs, and even evil all to justify it's failures. The truth is the majority should always call out these tactics and not be cow towed into making changes simply to appease a few or for fear of being attacked for their position. If having a woman play doctor who is so important, those people should run out and create their own show about a woman time traveler and stop making demands that aren't clearly the majority opinion.
