It baffles me that there are people defending Moffat and not seeing what is so clearly wrong with what he wrote (i.e. erasure of queer identity, taking a strong woman who wins and having her become weak and in the end losing among other problematic things).
So many people don't want to think about the problems with their entertainment. Some people don't even understand why one would want to analyze, critique, or otherwise even think about TV. And some people don't see a problem with his writing, and call anyone who criticized him a man-hating feminazi. It baffles me, too.
For someone that prides himself on being true to canon, he certainly got it completely wrong.
So VERY VERY wrong. Seriously. As mentioned above, if the VICTORIANS are doing it better, there's some fail going on.
Out of curiosity's sake, how did you stumble upon this post? Also, saw that you friended me, and have friended back.
