I subscribe to the Occam's Misogynist theory myself - She's a woman in a Moffat story who isn't there to serve men or the men's story - therefore she is Evil. And psychotic. And a gay rapist. Because of course she fucking is.
Okay. I mean, I am not sure what else I am supposed to say to this reply to a meta I worked on all evening. I could go with that reading, too. I could write that meta. I could get really fucking pissed off about Moffat and everything he writes and stands for. I don’t have the huge hatred for Moffat that a lot of folks do, but I could dive into all about how he writes women and the problems therein. I have the degrees to back me up and I’ve read a good share of feminist theory. I’m a queer feminist, so ya know, I’m not a moron unaware of the shit that goes on in popular culture.
But I am also really fucking tired and sometimes I want to just enjoy a goddamn show and not fucking hate every moment of it. Sometimes I need to turn my angry queer feminist brain off for 90 minutes and just watch pretty people doing pretty things, because if I don’t I will be so fucking angry all the time I wouldn’t be able to get through the day. Sometimes I want to get on tumblr and just talk about the things I like about a show because real life is really fucking ugly and full of horribleness. Having a mental illness means that I spend most of the time seeing nothing but the awful in the world, so you’ll have to forgive me for indulging in trying to find interesting and cool things to talk about in a show that I love.
