Not really, but the political correctness behind the gender change certainly does. Whenever there's a figure of fun in a TV advert, it's always a man never a woman. It's an annoying trend, and perhaps soon there will be the 'token man' in otherwise all female programmes.
Your assertion that medical statistics somehow justify the gender change of a fictitious TV character pretty well sums it up.
I don't suppose you see the irony of your justification? As you said, Dr Who is a fictional character, so the writers can choose to make the character do/be/say whatever they want.
Feel free to write your own massively successful and long-lasting drama series. I'm sure you have a much better idea of what will work.
The plan is for the new Doctor to get knocked up by a Dalek

Sounds painful, but like they say... sex sells.
I think it's a good idea personally... I'm sure it'll improve ratings... girl power... and all the nerds will have some fresh material to knock one out over.
I'm a bit concerned about the talk about a female James Bond. WTF!
Not watched Dr Who for a while(39 years,lol). Was sad to read they had to throw lesbians in. Err, why? When I was 10, scary aliens and lucky escapes etc was what it was all about. Not having correctness shoved down my throat ( I was actually a hide behind the sofa kid, mind you, that was the 70's)

Doctors can be women too. In fact over 44% of doctors in the UK are female. So really having a female Dr Who is long overdue!
Oh dear........for a start he's not a medical doctor, it's just an honorific.
He's a time LORD. This is the first we've heard of a time LADY.
We've met and heard of other time Lords.
One wonders what will happen if she chips her nail polish, ladders her tights, hasn't got her eye liner right, or is suffering from PMT......
