[Side note: Is Time Lady the official name for a female Time Lord, or since they can change gender anyway is Time Lord generally used for all of them?] [[User:Saghan|Saghan]] [[User talk:Saghan|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 16:48, October 1, 2012 (UTC) | [Side note: Is Time Lady the official name for a female Time Lord, or since they can change gender anyway is Time Lord generally used for all of them?] [[User:Saghan|Saghan]] [[User talk:Saghan|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 16:48, October 1, 2012 (UTC) | ||
Saghan, re your side note: As far as I know, the Doctor used the term "Time Lady" '''once''' (in ''City of Death''), referring to Romana. I don't recall it being used on screen on any other occasion. Romana used the term "Time Lord" of herself (in ''The Creature from the Pit''). Given that they can change gender and that we've no example on screen of a female Time Lord calling herself a "Time Lady", I would (& do) use "Time Lord" for all of them. However, "Time Lady" seems to be established fan usage & it may be a losing battle to try to get it changed. I can't, though, see any reason to adopt the sexist habit myself. --[[Special:Contributions/89.240.242.255|89.240.242.255]]<sup>[[User talk:89.240.242.255#top|talk to me]]</sup> 18:31, October 1, 2012 (UTC) | |||
