The new Doctor

[Cyberman]

I don't like the Doctor being old looking again. I like him young and sexy.

Capaldi is only about the same age as William Hartnell was when he first took the part. The Universe needs some discipline again.

I'd like him even more if he were a Time Lady. Then I would be like, "GETINMAHBEDNAO!" I would even have sex with people who looked like (her)... even if it was only a little. I do that with Tina Fey, too.

Consider that these are meant to be the same person:

Eleven was more flirty than previous incarnations of the Doctor, probably due to the influences of River and Amy, but I still think Doctor Who NEEDS MOAR SEX.

I disagree, and not for the usual reasons that get trotted out about DW fans having no girlfriends. Doctor Who needs to be about the stories and the characters. The Universe in DW terms tends to be a place filled with monsters, human and otherwise, and subjugation of voiceless minorities. Sex, unless handled sparingly and judiciously, should be only a tiny part of that picture, if at all. Otherwise it gets boring. Oh, someone wants to shag the Doctor again? Ok, wake me when something different happens.

Even Torchwood, really. Lots of making out. An acceptable level of actual sex. Could have done with MOAR SEX.

Case in point. Torchwood was a good example of using sex as padding for a thin story. Not that all the stories were thin, but cut out the sex subplots and you'd end up with half a season at best. There are other, far better ways to adult a story than simply have all the characters fuck each other all the time. It has its place, but overuse merely renders the whole attempt adolescent.

That's the problem with Sci-Fi, really. So much of it is so sexless.

With good reason most of the time. If the story has nothing to do with sex, or any other 'adult' topic such as race or gender issues, what is to be gained by shoehorning such things into it?

And when there is sex, it's usually boring heterosexual missionary position sex between only two people. If my sci-fi ever makes it to screen, oh my god, it will make Torchwood look hetero and tame. I guess that means it will be on HBO. Keep an eye out.

Interesting you should make this complaint inbetween referencing Torchwood, with its polysexual themes. I look forward to seeing your own sci-fi vision though. Any chance of an advance copy?
