      The Doctor when they interact with themselves talk smack with each other and generally act like haters, but when push comes to shove they help out and are generally peaceable.
      Whereas while the master is all joy and complements and flirting, I feel like they usually just end up mostly fucking each other over and stabbing each other in the back. Only seen the one multi-master so my sample size is more limited here, but c’mon.

    Honestly it just makes so much sense for the time lords to have genderfluid coding in their lore, especially with how 12 explains the way that their ideas and concepts differ from human society. Just goes to show how show writers can create these sorts of out-worldly concepts yet still have that human and grounded element to them which you can always relate back to in some way.

      In my headcanon, the Time Lord language (Common Gallifreyan) doesn't have any pronouns. The closest word they have is "it", and it's seen as disrespectful to not address anyone by their full name and title.

      "It" *is* a pronoun. Other pronouns include but are not limited to "I", "Thou"(this one doesn't really get used anymore), "You"(singular), "He", "She", "They"(singular), "We", "You"(plural) and "They"(plural).
      A language without pronouns would be something like this(oh, yeah, "this" in this particular case is a pronoun. The way this word is used in the following sentences however is not):
      "Person writing this comment does not use pronouns right now. Person writing this comment hopes that person reading this comment understands.

      I have this lil theory/Headcanon that The Doctor was probably trans during their other incarnation specifically the "first" one because that would explain some quotes like "I played Omega at the academy... Well the girl version of Omega", "it's been I while since I borrowed women's clothes" or Missy's "since he was a little girl" and why they keep unconsciously having masculine incarnation even when those incarnations are non binary like 10, they're so used to be masculine because of their first incarnation being trans that they're a bit lost when they're finally a woman again.

I also followed her on Instagram where she came across as a really nice person and had a beautiful dress sense. Then she got an outfit that riffed off Colin Bakers garish coat, and stories and writing that were just really dull. I don't blame Jodie at all, I blame Chibnall and his terrible show running.

    I think the Time Lords might be using a different definition of that term. It could be described as "someone or something having power, authority, or influence; a master or ruler.", so in this situation, it would mean having control or governance over the very concept of time with nothing to do with gender.

That's a very basic explanation, but gender is Not genitalia related, that's the sex of the person.

      The Master is a master of disguise. In the revival series alone the master hid as a human to avoid dying in the time war, became the Prime Minister without The Doctor noticing, became Rasputin and disguised himself as "Razor" and "Agent O." It's safe to say The Master figured out how to hide his identity from other time lords.

And I've always watched DW in english with subtitles, and then a episode of season 11 wasn't working on a couple sites (yes, I'm a pirate), so I watched it dubbed to Brazilian Portuguese, and had the most delightful surprise when I heard the companions uses she/her pronouns for her, but they call her "O Doutor" in the masculine form instead of "A Doutora" in the feminine form, because, you know, "The Doctor" is her name, and in portuguese always been O Doutor, that's their name.

      Because the 5th Doctor’s post regeneration recovery was a special case. The 4th Doctor’s synapses were open when he regenerated, meaning that the 5th Doctor’s was left overwhelmed by his heightened senses, so he needed the zero room to cut himself off from interference.

      @@samuelmerkel2888 It is really obnoxious having people call people out as racist, sexist etc... for giving actual criticism because one way or another someone with green buzzed hair and smelly armpits is going to take offense.
      The Doctor has one way or another been a pacifist and the only time he's shown prejudgeice is the daleks and for obvious reasons. Freema Agyeman was the first black companion and her character had conflict with the 10th doctor yet found a way to overcome, she literally helped save the world by turning the doctor into a god.
      Or take Sarah Jane and how she had her own show, her companions were diverse in race and gender yet they all bounced off each other and weren't perfect characters with no flaws.
      I can go on with the diversity with WHo and why the whole thing with Jodie Whitaker and the progressive nature of the show are unrelated with the downfall. Its down to the writing and whenever its about sending a message or not is irrelivant if its executed poorly.

    I know it can't be included bc it doesn't have dialogue/voice acting but the 13th Doctor actually met the Corsair when they were in a female regeneration in the comics

    My favourite Doctor Who gender thing is in ‘Kinda’ from Classic Who and ‘Time in Office’ from the Big Finish audios. I just love it so much. I really should have seen that I was trans sooner…

      I realised I should I have elaborated. In ‘Kinda’ there is a box that no man can touch without factory reseting his brain. The Doctor touches this box and suffers no ill effects. The elder says that the Doctor is either “not a man or is an idiot”

      The bit is ‘Time in Office’ is admittedly much smaller. The story is set on Gallifrey where the Time Lords are making five make good on his promise to become the Lord President of Gallifrey. A (time lord) reporter is chatting to a time lady architect (i think??? it’s been awhile) and she accuses him of being sexiest and he refutes that by saying that his last couple regenerations were women. I like it because it was so casual
