The Doctor when they interact with themselves talk smack with each other and generally act like haters, but when push comes to shove they help out and are generally peaceable. Whereas while the master is all joy and complements and flirting, I feel like they usually just end up mostly fucking each other over and stabbing each other in the back. Only seen the one multi-master so my sample size is more limited here, but c’mon.

Honestly it just makes so much sense for the time lords to have genderfluid coding in their lore, especially with how 12 explains the way that their ideas and concepts differ from human society.

In my headcanon, the Time Lord language (Common Gallifreyan) doesn't have any pronouns. The closest word they have is "it", and it's seen as disrespectful to not address anyone by their full name and title.
@@CyberController- "It" *is* a pronoun. Other pronouns include but are not limited to "I", "Thou"(this one doesn't really get used anymore), "You"(singular), "He", "She", "They"(singular), "We", "You"(plural) and "They"(plural). A language without pronouns would be something like this(oh, yeah, "this" in this particular case is a pronoun. The way this word is used in the following sentences however is not): "Person writing this comment does not use pronouns right now. Person writing this comment hopes that person reading this comment understands. Group of people person writing this comment is part of is going to talk to group of people that person reading this comment is part of and group of people that both person writing this comment and person reading this comment are not part of." It's definitely possible to have a language without pronouns, but it's pretty inconvenient.
@@Idkpleasejustletmechangeit Just a headcanon, the Time Lords seem like the kind of people who want you to say their full name and title before speaking to them.
@@CyberController-I fell like instead of “It”, the main pronoun would actually be “The”, as most time lords tend to refer to themselves with a “The” in front of their name (e.g. The Doctor, The Master, The Rani, The War Lord, The Monk, The Corsair, etc.)
I love how relaxed they wrote the other time lords during the Generals regeneration Companions are like "WHAT THE F*CK IS HAPPENING" other timelords "hey carl? yeah... generals doing the thing again... yeah, uh regeneration is the tech term right? Yeah well he's.... sorry she's doing it"
I have this lil theory/Headcanon that The Doctor was probably trans during their other incarnation specifically the "first" one because that would explain some quotes like "I played Omega at the academy... Well the girl version of Omega", "it's been I while since I borrowed women's clothes" or Missy's "since he was a little girl" and why they keep unconsciously having masculine incarnation even when those incarnations are non binary like 10, they're so used to be masculine because of their first incarnation being trans that they're a bit lost when they're finally a woman again.

Love this video! It's like when Thirteen was announced as a *gasp* woman and all those people said but they're Time Lords not Time Ladies, forgetting that Time Lord is a Species and we'd already met a Female Time Lord being Romana back in 1978 who was a Companion to the Fourth Doctor. Over the last twenty years or more the Big Finish Audios have had Time Lords of male and female, plus Time Lords who Don't have human appearance. Gender is fascinating ❤️
@@Theoriginal-oneandonly I think you mean Sex.... 😉 Gender is a social concept, that's the official definition of the UK government on their website. Centuries ago men wore the high heels (seriously) and this was accepted and Expected by the male gender... Today its switched to the female gender who is expected to wear the high heels. That's a very basic explanation, but gender is Not genitalia related, that's the sex of the person. Remember that blue was for girls at the beginning of the 20th century and pink for boys, now it's the other way around. Social constructs are fascinating to study 😊
Rewatching the series I noticed how much they've been foreshadowing this before we actually saw it the first time with Missy. It's nice to see how casual it is to time lords, and it's nice that there's a BBC IP that's actually affirming considering the transphobic fit the BBC has been going on. And now I really wanna see The Corsair appear some time!
Frances de la Tour was seriously considered to play the 8th Doctor after someone else were to have a brief stint as 7, but they nixed it as the show wasn't too stable at the time and they kinda had to play it save, I think the 14/15 situation is basically the same idea but actually done
Anyone else find it annoying that the doctor doesn’t instantly recognise Missy, especially since he says in The Sound of Drums (to Martha and Jack) that “time lords always know”.
Maybe the odd circumstances of his new regeneration gave him a bit of a memory blur and he was too distracted at the time to pick up on the Time Lady signal?
The Master is a master of disguise. In the revival series alone the master hid as a human to avoid dying in the time war, became the Prime Minister without The Doctor noticing, became Rasputin and disguised himself as "Razor" and "Agent O." It's safe to say The Master figured out how to hide his identity from other time lords.

When I first saw trailers with Bill in, I wasn't sure I was going to like her. Then I saw her in her first episode and went, "Yeah, she's going to be just fine." I'm not talking about her gender or orientation, but the fact that she's very smart, and for all that she's a dinner lady, she can see things as clearly, if not clearer, than the Doctor himself.
@@gonzbergtvbut what you doing in this video though ? By a gender fluid person? Ugh just coming to shit stir . So ornery. The rest of us are having an enjoyable time with this vid thanks.
You know, there's a room on the Tardis built specifically for them to regenerate in. The Zero Room. Why, in universe, do they never use it? Obviously not every doctor has time but 11 certainly did. As did War! I wish I'd never learned about that room bc now when each Doctor regenerates I'll be stuck thinking about it.
Because the 5th Doctor’s post regeneration recovery was a special case. The 4th Doctor’s synapses were open when he regenerated, meaning that the 5th Doctor’s was left overwhelmed by his heightened senses, so he needed the zero room to cut himself off from interference.
The Tardis also refurbs itself every so often, so it's entirely possible that that room doesn't exist anymore or has been archived or moved somewhere the doctor can't find it.
@@hannahk1306 The Zero Room in the Doctor's TARDIS was jettisoned at end of _Castrovalva_ in order to create enough power to escape Event One. Although it has been reinstated and reappeared in various novels, comics and audios, it has never popped up again on TV.
I mean, it makes sense. The Doctor can change anything about their body, it would be highly illogical if the only thing they can't change is their sex.
I'm rewatching 13th since the beginning (I'm back at Spyfall 2) because I kinda stopped watching for while, and we just heard about Ncuti being the next Doctor, so I'm trying to catch up before she's gone. And I've always watched DW in english with subtitles, and then a episode of season 11 wasn't working on a couple sites (yes, I'm a pirate), so I watched it dubbed to Brazilian Portuguese, and had the most delightful surprise when I heard the companions uses she/her pronouns for her, but they call her "O Doutor" in the masculine form instead of "A Doutora" in the feminine form, because, you know, "The Doctor" is her name, and in portuguese always been O Doutor, that's their name. Always has been. And didn't change because her body did. And I think that's absolutely fantastic :D
I feel the same way. I didn’t realize there was that much cannon. I honestly only watched Eccleston and a little bit of other episodes here and there. I only discovered my own gender fluidity when I decided to focus on me rather than putting my needs after other needs.
"We're billion years before your petty human obsession with gender and its associated stereotypes." That's a very beautiful line I will now be using to throw at conservatives and transphobes
I heard someone say that the reason the doctor is so explosive during regen is cause they’re the timeless child and all that and just powerful or whatever but I love the idea that they’re just so stubborn that they always put it off for so long to say goodbye or whatever and it builds up to be that explosive
It was never outright confirmed or denied in the Classic Era. Famously, Troughton said in an interview back in the 80s that there was no limit on what regeneration could do.
The thing that I hate is that people say the Doctor can only be a white straight man. First of all, Time Lords don’t have definitive sexualities, because, since regeneration is random, they can’t be only into men or women if they’re partner or spouse is the same gender as them, meaning they can’t be straight or have conventional thoughts about gender because it’s fluid. Second of all, as pointed above, regeneration is random, meaning they can be a woman, a man, while, black, yellow etc. The Doctor doesn’t need to be played only by while men. I understand this is controversial to older audience members because, in the 60s, a woman leading a show would have been very controversial, but it’s 2024, women can do anything they want, including being the Doctor
Wait what if the doctor regenerates into a baby? What would the companions do then? What if they’re alone when they’re regenerating? Or worse crashing?
Okay, if the Doctor _does_ regenerate into a child, that would be the most hillarious thing. It'll be like Number Five from Umbrella Academy but british
My minor understanding is that Time Lords tend to be adults from their point of view. You tend to regenerate into an adult (the Doctor has never been anything other than an adult and the Madter don't seem to have ever taken the appearance of a child when regenerated) or at least someone who can communicate with your surroundings if you include that a lot of time Lords seem a bit immature
@@JDM-is-my-name there has been a child master in the comics for the early stages of The Time War but they were still very much The Master you've come to expect mentally
@@stephenocalla3708 could that have been their first generation? If I remember correctly (and please be aware I may be misremembering) we also saw the Doctor as a child, but that was before the Time Lords went kind of extinct
@I_hate_me The reason the master was a child in the time war was because he'd run out of regeneration, and the time lords restarted him with a whole knew cycle. He kept his memories, but his form, a new first, was made to appear as a child, I think on purpose. I suspect it may be tradition on Gallifrey
Personally I'd have cut straight from 13 saying "I've had an upgrade" to this one: DALEK: You are a Time Lord? MISSY: Time Lady, thank you. Some of us can afford the upgrade.
I think this is the most clips I've seen of the 13th doctor, seems like she'll be fun to watch when i get there! (Im currently making my way through Doctor Who - I just finished season 2) Anyway, this compilation was hilarious, i just got distracted
I like the idea that even tho they can change gender, they primarily go for one over the other just out of preference, both the corsair and the general solidified that before the timeless child could suggest the doctor was supposed to have an even number.
Other Time Lords like Romana seem to have more control over the process. The Doctor barely scraped his way through the Academy and couldn't actually fly the TARDIS till the 70s.
Idk if it's just me, but the the very first ep of New Who, I'm sure 9 made a reference being a lady or wanting to be a lady. It's during the scene where 9 enters Rose's house around when 9 made a comment about his ears.
My favourite Doctor Who gender thing is in ‘Kinda’ from Classic Who and ‘Time in Office’ from the Big Finish audios. I just love it so much. I really should have seen that I was trans sooner…
I realised I should I have elaborated. In ‘Kinda’ there is a box that no man can touch without factory reseting his brain. The Doctor touches this box and suffers no ill effects. The elder says that the Doctor is either “not a man or is an idiot”
@@jam-the-hologram yes i love that line!! i wish classic who was easier to download because there were quite a few scenes i wanted to include. us trans people just get attracted to doctor who don't we lol
The bit is ‘Time in Office’ is admittedly much smaller. The story is set on Gallifrey where the Time Lords are making five make good on his promise to become the Lord President of Gallifrey. A (time lord) reporter is chatting to a time lady architect (i think??? it’s been awhile) and she accuses him of being sexiest and he refutes that by saying that his last couple regenerations were women. I like it because it was so casual
If I had a nickel for every time David Tennant played a gender fluid, non-human, functionally immoral character who got their heart broken by a blond... I'd have two nickels

It's like when Thirteen was announced as a *gasp* woman and all those people said but they're Time Lords not Time Ladies, forgetting that Time Lord is a Species and we'd already met a Female Time Lord being Romana back in 1978 who was a Companion to the Fourth Doctor. Over the last twenty years or more the Big Finish Audios have had Time Lords of male and female, plus Time Lords who Don't have human appearance. Gender is fascinating ❤️
@@tommykirk3403 dont they have the loom thing? idk im not very informed about gallifreyan lore
Time Lords aren’t a species, it’s a rank in the hierarchy of Gallifreyan society
Not to mention Missy
Too bad humans can only be one gender from the day they’re born
@@Theoriginal-oneandonly I think you mean Sex.... 😉 Gender is a social concept, that's the official definition of the UK government on their website.
Centuries ago men wore the high heels (seriously) and this was accepted and Expected by the male gender... Today its switched to the female gender who is expected to wear the high heels. That's a very basic explanation, but gender is Not genitalia related, that's the sex of the person. Remember that blue was for girls at the beginning of the 20th century and pink for boys, now it's the other way around. Social constructs are fascinating to study 😊
Rewatching the series I noticed how much they've been foreshadowing this before we actually saw it the first time with Missy.
It's nice to see how casual it is to time lords, and it's nice that there's a BBC IP that's actually affirming considering the transphobic fit the BBC has been going on.
And now I really wanna see The Corsair appear some time!
I’m glad I’m not the only one who didn’t forget the Corsair 😂
Corsair was killed. We saw his arm used by the Aunt in that episode.
She's been in the Titan for 13.
Frances de la Tour was seriously considered to play the 8th Doctor after someone else were to have a brief stint as 7, but they nixed it as the show wasn't too stable at the time and they kinda had to play it save, I think the 14/15 situation is basically the same idea but actually done
@@emircan457 I mean, the doctor regrew a hand.
Anyone else find it annoying that the doctor doesn’t instantly recognise Missy, especially since he says in The Sound of Drums (to Martha and Jack) that “time lords always know”.
Maybe the odd circumstances of his new regeneration gave him a bit of a memory blur and he was too distracted at the time to pick up on the Time Lady signal?
The Master is a master of disguise. In the revival series alone the master hid as a human to avoid dying in the time war, became the Prime Minister without The Doctor noticing, became Rasputin and disguised himself as "Razor" and "Agent O." It's safe to say The Master figured out how to hide his identity from other time lords.
Recognition or not, it should have been obvious! I mean, Missy? Really?
The Doctor never recognised Anthony Ainley’s Master under his various disguises, so technically the Sound of Drums scene is the outlier here.
well you can certainly add more to this video with the specials now lol
3:04 sums up the 11th doctor so well, he says some nonsense, waves his hands around, then shouts as something explodes
I need a clip from each doctor’s era that sums them up like this clip lol
2:06 DAVID YOUR CROWLEY IS SHOWING
David really does have a tardis. Went back, what 15ish years to record this after doing GO

a gay awakening for many women in the world i'm sure

Bloody hell how did you know 😅 @astra6031
@@astra6031 i'm straight but i can still have some charm for woman but is very difficult. Until one of these days, OUT OF NOWHERE i felt a brutal enchantment in jodie! 💀🎠💎🦋i love something about her and i don't really know what it is.. Ksksks :D ❤
When I first saw trailers with Bill in, I wasn't sure I was going to like her. Then I saw her in her first episode and went, "Yeah, she's going to be just fine." I'm not talking about her gender or orientation, but the fact that she's very smart, and for all that she's a dinner lady, she can see things as clearly, if not clearer, than the Doctor himself.
I was exactly the same way! Ended up loving the character snd rather disappointed with her shock method of departure.
"She means thatcher" BLESS I died laughing
"The Doctor..is a MAN"
Doctor: "I've had an upgrade, hi"
Me: PFFFFT LMAO you slay queen
Casual misogyny.

as a trans woman i feel this

OH MY GOD ITS WIBBLEY WOBBLEY GENDY BENDY stuff
"Just us girls"😆
You know, there's a room on the Tardis built specifically for them to regenerate in. The Zero Room. Why, in universe, do they never use it? Obviously not every doctor has time but 11 certainly did. As did War! I wish I'd never learned about that room bc now when each Doctor regenerates I'll be stuck thinking about it.
Because the 5th Doctor’s post regeneration recovery was a special case. The 4th Doctor’s synapses were open when he regenerated, meaning that the 5th Doctor’s was left overwhelmed by his heightened senses, so he needed the zero room to cut himself off from interference.
The Tardis also refurbs itself every so often, so it's entirely possible that that room doesn't exist anymore or has been archived or moved somewhere the doctor can't find it.
@@hannahk1306 The Zero Room in the Doctor's TARDIS was jettisoned at end of _Castrovalva_ in order to create enough power to escape Event One.
Although it has been reinstated and reappeared in various novels, comics and audios, it has never popped up again on TV.
I head canon that the doctor doesn’t use anything about the tardis right
I mean, it makes sense. The Doctor can change anything about their body, it would be highly illogical if the only thing they can't change is their sex.
I'm rewatching 13th since the beginning (I'm back at Spyfall 2) because I kinda stopped watching for while, and we just heard about Ncuti being the next Doctor, so I'm trying to catch up before she's gone. And I've always watched DW in english with subtitles, and then a episode of season 11 wasn't working on a couple sites (yes, I'm a pirate), so I watched it dubbed to Brazilian Portuguese, and had the most delightful surprise when I heard the companions uses she/her pronouns for her, but they call her "O Doutor" in the masculine form instead of "A Doutora" in the feminine form, because, you know, "The Doctor" is her name, and in portuguese always been O Doutor, that's their name. Always has been. And didn't change because her body did.
And I think that's absolutely fantastic :D
thats brilliant! i love hearing stuff like that
me parece una falta de respeto de que no hayas mencionado la página pirata por la que ves doctor who pasa el link carnal
Some dubs change to a doutora some don't both are right because The doctor is the name but here get translated to male and female form
"Yeah, shuttup." Doc 13 gettin called out by Bill gets me every time!
THANK YOU FOR INTRODUCING ME TO THIS CHARACTER
you're most welcome, i hope you enjoy the best fictional character to ever exist
The Doctor is also ace btw (and some incarnation are ace-aro, some gay, some bi, some pan ect)
this made me so :)) i came out as genderfluid a while ago and i looooove doctor who cheers for this !!
aww i'm glad! i'm a trans woman so i this stuff is everything to me too, love that doctor who can make us feel seen!
@@astra6031 Hey'a, well.. khm strange to say but also nice to meet you both! Even if I'am not genderfluid or trans still think we could be friends ^^
@@User-mj6ox why would you need to be trans to be friends with a trans person..?
I feel the same way. I didn’t realize there was that much cannon. I honestly only watched Eccleston and a little bit of other episodes here and there. I only discovered my own gender fluidity when I decided to focus on me rather than putting my needs after other needs.
Makes sense since regeneration is a lottery which is why Matt Smith has to compensate
The ‘Every time!’ Was hilarious
2:04 I completely forgot about this one
You can tell how rare being a women is for the doctor even if its a completely different personality
Who's is here that the 10th is your favorite doctor?
"We're billion years before your petty human obsession with gender and its associated stereotypes."
That's a very beautiful line I will now be using to throw at conservatives and transphobes
But they still called themselves Time Lords.
thanks for explaining the PM joke there. Being an Aussie, didn't know which UK PM was worst 😂😂
The only time The Master showed genuine attraction towards someone was themself and it's perfect.
I heard someone say that the reason the doctor is so explosive during regen is cause they’re the timeless child and all that and just powerful or whatever but I love the idea that they’re just so stubborn that they always put it off for so long to say goodbye or whatever and it builds up to be that explosive
it could be both!
Also more recently, my favourite one, the psychic paper not updated for the 14th Doctor.
i wish i could add that in i adored that scene
I don’t think anything in canon ever said the Timelords COULDN’T change gender from Regeneration, so it’s always been possible :3
It was never outright confirmed or denied in the Classic Era. Famously, Troughton said in an interview back in the 80s that there was no limit on what regeneration could do.
The thing that I hate is that people say the Doctor can only be a white straight man. First of all, Time Lords don’t have definitive sexualities, because, since regeneration is random, they can’t be only into men or women if they’re partner or spouse is the same gender as them, meaning they can’t be straight or have conventional thoughts about gender because it’s fluid. Second of all, as pointed above, regeneration is random, meaning they can be a woman, a man, while, black, yellow etc. The Doctor doesn’t need to be played only by while men. I understand this is controversial to older audience members because, in the 60s, a woman leading a show would have been very controversial, but it’s 2024, women can do anything they want, including being the Doctor
my favourite clip is when missy says "Time lady thank you very much. Some of us can afford the upgrade."
I like how during capaldis run we had 3 regenerations and they were all genderswaps
Wait what if the doctor regenerates into a baby? What would the companions do then? What if they’re alone when they’re regenerating? Or worse crashing?
Okay, if the Doctor _does_ regenerate into a child, that would be the most hillarious thing. It'll be like Number Five from Umbrella Academy but british
My minor understanding is that Time Lords tend to be adults from their point of view. You tend to regenerate into an adult (the Doctor has never been anything other than an adult and the Madter don't seem to have ever taken the appearance of a child when regenerated) or at least someone who can communicate with your surroundings if you include that a lot of time Lords seem a bit immature
@@JDM-is-my-name there has been a child master in the comics for the early stages of The Time War but they were still very much The Master you've come to expect mentally
@@stephenocalla3708 could that have been their first generation? If I remember correctly (and please be aware I may be misremembering) we also saw the Doctor as a child, but that was before the Time Lords went kind of extinct
@I_hate_me The reason the master was a child in the time war was because he'd run out of regeneration, and the time lords restarted him with a whole knew cycle. He kept his memories, but his form, a new first, was made to appear as a child, I think on purpose. I suspect it may be tradition on Gallifrey
yeah why does she have eyeshadow on she just came into existence geez
Personally I'd have cut straight from 13 saying "I've had an upgrade" to this one:
DALEK: You are a Time Lord?
MISSY: Time Lady, thank you. Some of us can afford the upgrade.
"Oooooooooh, she was a bad girl"
**Explodes**
"she means thatcher"
lol
I think this is the most clips I've seen of the 13th doctor, seems like she'll be fun to watch when i get there! (Im currently making my way through Doctor Who - I just finished season 2)
Anyway, this compilation was hilarious, i just got distracted
“hair....IM A GiRL” always gets me
This video would probably be double its length if it was released after Ncuti's first series.
The Doctor forgetting their gender is hilariously on brand.
I like the idea that even tho they can change gender, they primarily go for one over the other just out of preference, both the corsair and the general solidified that before the timeless child could suggest the doctor was supposed to have an even number.
Constantly revolving 3 saying "I am no sort of chap!" in my brain
SAME I LOVE THAT LINE SO MUCH
Me every time an anti-woke RUclipsr kicks off about Donna’s daughter being trans:
"Did you just say *her*?"
-Ian Chesterton
4:32 I thought the doctor could choose some parts like how he made 12 resemble the man they saved in Pompeii.
They can but it's a subconscious choice. It took a long time for Twelve to realize why he had that face.
@@fyraltari1889 ohhhhhh
That's the point. The "potion" is lemonade and dry ice. The Eighth Doctor drank it thinking he'd become a warrior, and so a warrior he became.
Other Time Lords like Romana seem to have more control over the process. The Doctor barely scraped his way through the Academy and couldn't actually fly the TARDIS till the 70s.
I love the Master flirting with another version of themself.
"My references to body and gender regeneration are all in jest"
HAHAHSGSBSGSBD THIS IS SO FUN TO WATCH WITHOUT ACTUALLY KNOWING THE CONTEXT OF THE SHOW HAHAHAHAHAHAH
2:30 this is actually so iconic wtf??
Most of these are from Capaldi’s last few and 13’s first few.
And?

The fact they brought up the time the Master was Prime Minister Saxon just to take a dig at Thatcher will never not be funny to me.
As a Genderfluid, I now wish I was a Timelord
Tbf I don't think it's so good cause to shapeshift you must fucking die 😂
i love how the doctor keeps forgetting river is going the other way in his timline
All hail our trans-icon
Idk if it's just me, but the the very first ep of New Who, I'm sure 9 made a reference being a lady or wanting to be a lady. It's during the scene where 9 enters Rose's house around when 9 made a comment about his ears.
He doesn’t
Jodie Whittaker my beloved

So glad you included The General's regeneration
I love Osgood. Such a fan!
"i've got an update.... hi"
My favourite Doctor Who gender thing is in ‘Kinda’ from Classic Who and ‘Time in Office’ from the Big Finish audios. I just love it so much. I really should have seen that I was trans sooner…
I realised I should I have elaborated. In ‘Kinda’ there is a box that no man can touch without factory reseting his brain. The Doctor touches this box and suffers no ill effects. The elder says that the Doctor is either “not a man or is an idiot”
@@jam-the-hologram yes i love that line!! i wish classic who was easier to download because there were quite a few scenes i wanted to include. us trans people just get attracted to doctor who don't we lol
The bit is ‘Time in Office’ is admittedly much smaller. The story is set on Gallifrey where the Time Lords are making five make good on his promise to become the Lord President of Gallifrey. A (time lord) reporter is chatting to a time lady architect (i think??? it’s been awhile) and she accuses him of being sexiest and he refutes that by saying that his last couple regenerations were women. I like it because it was so casual
"Are you a boy or a girl?"
"I'm an idiot"
To paraphrase, my memory is imprecise:
"One thing you have to remember about me - I am definitely an idiot with a box."
If I had a nickel for every time David Tennant played a gender fluid, non-human, functionally immoral character who got their heart broken by a blond... I'd have two nickels
You forgot asexual lmao
