Like kissing, but there's a winner.

TV taught me how to feel Now real life has no appeal

Steven Moffat Explains Why He’s So Bad At Writing Women

“There’s this issue you’re not allowed to discuss: that women are needy. Men can go for longer, more happily, without women. That’s the truth. We don’t, as little boys, play at being married - we try to avoid it for as long as possible. Meanwhile women are out there hunting for husbands. The world is vastly counted in favour of men at every level - except if you live in a civilised country and you’re sort of educated and middle-class, because then you’re almost certainly junior in your relationship and in a state of permanent, crippled apology. Your preferences are routinely mocked. There’s a huge, unfortunate lack of respect for anything male.”

Steven Moffat, in The Scotsman  (via michaelbush)

Seriously though, won’t someone think of the men?! Having to deal with us needy women, gosh, I just don’t know how they do it!

 #soooo let me know if i’m reading this right. #what moffatt is basically saying is #ouch my priviledge is hurting #how oh how can i ever deal with being a middle class straight white man with a successful career and several primetime bbc1 tv shows and a successful motion picture release and the ears and eyes of the british media? #this burden is oh so difficult to bear #i feel so underrepresented and marginalised #stfu #gtfo #i’m so glad family television is trusted to this man. #it’s not like shows like doctor who are formative or anything #thank fuck he can tell a decent story and his sexist bull shit shows only rarely

Filed under ...basically ugh this would be why i can't stomach doctor who at the moment i just can't fully enjoy work by someone who thinks this way it's upsetting personally and frustrating professionally Moffat is someone I am getting into this industry SPECIFICALLY to provide an alternative to the personal is political
