RE: Gender Bender

That's the beauty of it. We don't all have to agree on everything, we just have to respect each other's opinion :D

It's good that you're daughter is developing a strong stance at a young age. Good for her! I feel like I wasn't able to illustrate my dislike of feminazis very well, mainly because I didn't want to name names or point out exact topics. That's a fair point you stated, though in that discussion, I was really trying to support them but they misunderstood where I'm coming from and I became a target of their barrage. Not something you would want to do to someone in your corner, I think.

I agree that it's hard to make something new, but with drastic changes, they run the risk of alienating the established fanbase. Why would they need to change someone's race if they could easily just create a new character that could easily be put in an apprentice position until he/she is fully equipped to take on the mantle of the predecessor? Wouldn't it be cooler if it's instead James' lesbian cousin Janice who takes up his position when James' leg becomes amputated? I think given time, if Janice is established slowly, fans wouldn't have any problems with her becoming the main character as James takes a bow.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I appreciate it and I enjoyed the discussion. Lots of stuff to think about for sure :D

Hahahaha :) Thea Janice and the amputated leg of James is a grate idea :D Now I really want to see that movie :D

See! Much more intriguing than inexplicably changing James Bond into a woman, yeah? Really though, I'm all about the logical explanation. With the Doctor, they could easily explain it through regeneration, but for other characters? Well, that's the tricky part haha!
