    I "agree".

    Why can't we have a long term positive male companion?

    Because the Doctor likes nice young girls to show them that it's bigger on the inside.

    I'm not claiming this is in any way representative of Who viewers as a whole, but my university has a Who fan club (we call ourselves the Society of Gallifreyan Scholars) and the membership is ~75% female.

    I am interested in your society and wish to subscribe to your newsletter.
