Is the doctor gay

Peak woke for Doctor

Is that who I am now? Like, did someone mind-wipe him when we weren't looking? The Doctor: "Yeah, well. Ignoring all that sexual tension with the Master — they're basically bitter exes at this point — remember when Jack Harkness kissed the Ninth Doctor back in 's 'The Parting of the Ways'?

Upon seeing the episode, it's obvious that Doctor Who's returning showrunner was referring here to the literal edge of the universe where the Doctor and Donna end up fighting for their lives. In fact, the Doctor's extremely obvious queerness wasn't just under the surface.

Good, we've established that Donna and the Doctor both have eyes. Doctor Who has always been queer, to at least some degree, and it's about time that the show pushed this integral facet of the character "into areas it's never quite been into before.". Oh, and then there was that time the Doctor was a woman for three whole seasons.

The Doctor is a genderfluid character (as well as an aro-ace via the Sixth Doctor and ace via the Fourth, Tenth, Eleventh and Fourteenth Doctors) who is often characterized as panromantic and asexual, from Doctor Who. Much of the Doctor's early history is surrounded in mystery and contradictions.

The Doc sure didn't seem to mind, especially if all the endless flirting between them was anything to go by. It's literally been a week since the Doctor confirmed his gender-fluid, non-binary identity by describing himself as "a man, a woman, both, and neither.

But then an odd thing happened. You could argue that the Doctor's fluid gender identity doesn't necessarily mean that he's into guys, which of course is a valid, correct thing to say, but you'd expect an alien race "billions of years" beyond us would be a bit fluid with their sexuality too.

In this week's issue of Doctor Who magazine, legendary director Waris Hussein speaks about the Ncuti Gatwa's Doctor and queer identity. Martha: "I'm so glad to see you. That's to be expected given the tedious backlash trolls tried to generate last week with ' Star Beast 's trans storyline and exploration of gender.

But what's a tad strange about this scene is that even the Doctor himself seems a bit surprised by his lust for the Father of Gravity Daddy of Mavity. And then what about all the times the Doctor was indeed into guys?

Doctor Who First Gay

The Doctor seemed taken aback by these horny thoughts, saying, "Oh! It's a bit weird, it's scary, it's freaky, it pushes the show into areas it's never quite been into before. Describing the Doctor Who fandom as like a family "full of hope", he said the show has had a huge, lasting impact, both on him and many other LGBT fans.

Doctor Who specials episode 2 Wild Blue Yonder spoilers follow. After our faves met an extremely sexy version of Isaac Newton played by Nathaniel CurtisDonna later felt compelled to comment on said sexiness by asking: "Is it just me, or was Isaac Newton hot?

Six years later, Peter Capaldi's Doctor implied he might have been a woman before in the episode 'World Enough and Time' when he told Bill Potts that his civilisation is "billions of years beyond your petty human obsession with gender and its associated stereotypes.

Of course, that didn't stop trolls from immediately logging into their anonymous accounts to share some forced outrage with all three of their followers. The Doctor's sexuality changing through regeneration wouldn't be that weird, but 12 also admitted in World Enough and Time that the Master used to be his man crush when they were younger.

You can kiss me later. Some accounts proclaim the Doctor a Time Lord, half-human via the Eighth Doctor film, another. Two years later, 'Daleks in Manhattan' also teased the Doctor's queerness with the following exchange between him and his companion at the time, Martha Jones:.

And she's right. It's very clearly visible, just like Newton's hotness, and it has been for quite some time.
