whatever they were trying to do with connecting the metacrisis stuff directly to rose being trans just REALLY did not land lmao like “donna had a child so the metacrisis is split between them now so it’s survivable” okay cool. i literally do not understand how this connects to the fact that she is trans though and like it simply wasn’t necessary to try and connect it??? like something something by being trans she transcends gender and binary concepts… in a way that the doctor somehow DOESNT???? maybe i’m misunderstanding but the other possible implications don’t work very well either. idk it felt very sweet and i’m not ANGRY about it but also it was just so clumsy

#this isn’t about ‘binary trans people’ or whatever #like yeah by transitioning you are rejecting the binary structure of gender in society that’s not what i’m arguing here #like i do think rose does not identify as nonbinary but i don’t think that part is WRONG #even tho it’s clear they just wanted to use Trans Terminology #my point is how her transness non-binary in a way that the doctor isn’t???#i guess it’s more in a way that the doctor isn’t????#idk it was almost implying that it had to do with the fact that she ‘had been male’ but also why was any of it necessary!!!#like ‘only a trans person could house the doctors whole being’ or something idk #‘bc the doctor is all genders’ idk #it just didn’t need any of that to explain why the metacrisis was in her and it felt tacked on #or i guess was it saying she was trans bc she was partly the doctor????? all very weird #like just let her be trans and the name thing bc she remembered rose is nice #but other than that it doesn’t need to bear any relevance #r.txt
