I am going to enjoy every moment of 13 because it could be many regenerations before we get another woman - if ever.

I think non-fans are aware that the Doctor is male so that's why they're probably surprised it's a female now. This board exploded too during that time.

it was a great time i think any change is good i mean some people dont like it im going to watch this show until it goes off i feel the only reason why i wouldnt watch it is if the writing got really bad , i need good writing

People always complains when they announce the new Doctor.

I did get annoyed about the number of jokes about it how it'll have to be called Nurse Who, because women can't be doctors.

[One Thing Remains]

What?!?!? Nurse Who jokes? That is crazy. So glad I didn't see any of that, especially on this board. There are LOTS of women Doctors. How ridiculous

[a fine mess]

So sad. And it just shows, as a whole, society hasn't changed. More needs to be done.

We know who the companions are.

Yeah, I think it says a lot about the people making those "jokes" if they don't consider women being doctors in real life.

Sarah it's so sad that people have that type of mentality towards women

[Summer Falls]

well with everything going on now more & more people are speaking about it

[albion_princess]

That's very true.

I noticed quite a few people pointing out the "Nurse Who" jokes are stupid and quite a few people are also pointing out to maybe watch an episode with the Thirteenth Doctor before making a judgement.

I know that being a doctor is a male dominated career, but it's not like people don't know women doctors exist. They can't have spent their whole lives not having seen at least one female doctor. Or seen any programmes with female doctors.
