Overnight the BBC introduced the first female Dr Who and not everyone is 100% happy about it.
When it was announced that Jodie Whittaker (of Broadchurch fame) would be the 13th doctor, a bunch of chilled out blokes popped onto Twitter to calmly discuss their feelings on the matter.
Time LORD. I repeat the Doctor is a time LORD. Not a time LADY.

Only ever had male doctors and having a female one will ruin the legacy

In 1453 just weeks before the fall of the city the intellectuals of Constantinople were discussing the gender of angels. There were heated debates on whether angels were male or female.
Dr Who has in various episodes referred to there being millions of parallel universes. So, why wouldn't there be female time lords (Dr Who) in some of those universes. As a sci-fi fan and Dr Who fan I think it adds to the fascinating exploration of parallel universes. Awesome, can't wait to watch it :)
