Feminism: Doing it wrong

[lizbee]

With Amy gone, we can no longer argue whether or not wearing mini-skirts makes her a brazen hussy ... but don't worry, here's the argument about whether Clara's second job makes her a whore, or merely easy. Also, characterisation: what business does it have appearing in television?

Fandom: actually in fact the worst!

On an unrelated note: denizens of Tumblr! If you're about to claim that rape was unknown outside of Europe until it was introduced by colonisers, I strongly recommend first googling "noble savage stereotype", and then sitting very quietly and thinking about what you've done.

For every person making the argument that barmaid = prostitute, there is a cocktail waitress somewhere who has fantasized about murdering them horribly with a paper umbrella and an olive. I would bet money on it.
