Wank on, fandom, wank on.

Well, what with the great big SPOILER coming out - and the forthcoming Doctor Who wankpocalypse, I went and reported it to clairvoyantwank, because wank was pretty much inevitable.

Amd as if to prove me right, some kind soul swiftly went and dug me up some lovely tl;dr wankiness relating to racism and the New Big Spoiler.

So yeah. Doctor Who on fandom_wank. Again.

Enjoy!

I can't believe that it's the name they're complaining about *headdesks*

As a fangirl of Gerald Asamoah I thought everybody should be used to people having ordinary names, no?

It's just the most insanely petty thing, and yet the wank about it went on for ages. Silly, silly people.

The funny thing? I remember a veeery long topic on OG where someone declared it was time for a black Doctor. Oh my.

How long till someone mentioned Patterson Joseph? Fandom LOVES him!

Heh. I just wanted to point out that Odonkor's first name is David, which is a slightly old-fashioned name, too.

The only David I knew in RL was the brother of a classmate of mine. Said classmate is called Rachel, and all her siblings have got slightly old-fashioned names from the Old Testament. It was a very conservative Protestant family, BTW.

David Odonkor is a young black German, though. So why should Freema Agyeman not play a 'Martha'?
