"V" Posted November 7, 2007 Report Share Posted November 7, 2007 Re: Dr Who Fantastic resource - repped! Still baffled by the whole "Time Lords don't get horny" meme that is so common among fans. Even on that site the phrase "Though they are physicaly (sic) capable of sex most have almost no sex drive" has the crucial last six words in white lettering which denotes it as being either the website author's speculation or that of other fans. Bizarre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curufea Posted November 7, 2007 Report Share Posted November 7, 2007 Re: Dr Who It's the whole "decadent/dying society" thing. Sex implies lust for life and vibrancy. You don't equate a planet of stodgy bureaucrats and order fanatics with party animals. Gallifrey is a dystopic society - and in many dystopias in the science fiction genre, physical intimacy is one of the first things to go.

"V" Posted November 7, 2007 Report Share Posted November 7, 2007 Re: Dr Who True enough - the Anti Sex League in 1984 etc etc. Still, push something underground hard enough and it pops up in the most unexpected ways. I wonder if The Master chose his title because... ...no... ...perhaps better leave that one alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And of course, there is the amazingly camp bond villanesque Jonathan Pryce in Curse of the Fatal Death... I'm really glad he got to be a Bond villain after that performance.
