I don't watch NCIS or Doctor Who, but I've seen enough of what you're talking about in Harry Potter fandom to grok to your vibe. *nods*
Try taking any female character you dislike, and transforming them into a man... how does this change how you look at them?
This sounds like a fun thought experiment. :) Hmmm, let's see...I'll choose Dolores Umbridge from Harry Potter (she's pretty much a Complete Monster type of character and is one of my least favorites along with Voldemort). *ponders male!Umbridge* LOL, well, the only thing different is now I have made the connection between cat loving baddie Umbridge and cat loving villains Blofeld from the Bond films and Dr. Evil from Austin Powers. Umbridge didn't have a Mr. Bigglesworth, but she did have a bunch of animated kitten plates and a cat Patronus, LOL. If Umbridge had been male, I might have made the connection sooner (I've seen more male baddies than female baddies have a Right Hand Cat, although that's technically subverted with Umbridge).
