“Hurry up, won’t you?” The Doctor was getting impatient.


“I’d love to, Sweetie, but I’m caught on something, and my clasp seems to be stuck.” River smiled sweetly. “Could you give me a hand?”


“Oh, for…” The Doctor reached for the ornate jewelled clasp on the shoulder of River’s dress, used his sonic screwdriver to get it unjammed, and suddenly the whole dress was on the floor, leaving River in skimpy undergarments.


“Thank you, that’s so much better.” River scooped up her dress. “Shall we go?”


The Doctor swallowed hard, unsure where to look. “I think you’d better follow me.”

Rory:...Amy, he's taking his clothes off.
Eleventh Doctor: Turn your back if it embarrasses you.

Yeah. It's different when it's the other way around. Isn't it, Doctor?

[bk_forever]

Always different, lol! Some men are like that, different standards between men and women.

Thank you!

DONNA: It's you!
NEW DOCTOR: Oh, yes!
DONNA: You're naked.
NEW DOCTOR: Oh, yes.

Touché.

You're welcome.:)

[bk_forever]

Ha! Yes, Ten Too was a little different from the original.

[cynthia2015.livejournal.com]

And from then on, we knew why Ten had two different coloured suits.:)

I think Donna was expecting him to be fully clothed like Jenny was. I'm not sure. :D

[bk_forever]

Everyone likes to have a change occasionally, but the two colours at least meant his two selves were less confusing.

Donna was always a bit wary of ulterior motives when it came to the Doctor.

Donna: Oh, you got the same suit!
*pause*
Donna: Don't you ever change?

Well, his hairstyle did.:D

Yeah. She probably had to deal with unwanted male attention. So it doesn't help that Ten was pretty touchy feely. But he only touched her out of concern or safety.

[bk_forever]

When the Doctor finds a look that works, he sticks with it for a long time.

A lot of women have to deal with unwanted attention from men.

Rose: Aren't you going to change?
Ninth Doctor: I've changed my jumper.

Like a trademark.

Yeah. The decent ones respect women too much to consider making a move if interested. Although the lines can get blurred as to what people define as being friendly or overly familiar.

[bk_forever]

Yes, exactly.

Women have to be so much more careful these days.

Willow: Don't forget, you're supposed to be a meek little girlie-girl like the rest of us. (walks off).
Buffy: (looks at Larry) Spoil my fun ...

Yeah. We don't have super strength like Buffy.

[bk_forever]

Not unless we're female bodybuilders anyway. Which I'm not.

Joan Watson: I'm sorry, are you trying to take credit for the fact that I saved your life? And so soon after you promoted me to bodyguard.

The most is self-defence. Not everyone can have pretend bodyguard or a real one for that matter.

[bk_forever]

True, but it would be nice if we could! I wouldn't mind a hunky bodyguard keeping me safe if I have to go out.

[cynthia2015.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I know what you mean. I'm not sure if personal alarms work. Making a loud noise? People might ignored it. I've had my phone on standby when I've had to walk alone at night in the past. Nowadays I avoid that scenario at all costs.

[bk_forever]

Most people will ignore alarms because they don't want to get involved.

Better not to go anywhere alone after dark.

[cynthia2015.livejournal.com]

True. Some might think its just a false alarm from a car.

Yeah. I usually would walk with someone I knew, or in a group. One time my mum accompanied me when I had a night class.

[bk_forever]

Even if people realise it's a personal alarm, they'll go the other way. If something's happening bad enough for someone else to use an alarm, they don't want any part of it. Self preservation.

This is what overprotective uncles are for, I guess?
