  • Doctor Who: had a woman Doctor once

    Also Rose, the first companion of the new series was constantly showing the viewers the working class’s perspective throughout all their adventures, and fighting for those people at every chance.

    Then there are also characters like Dr. River Song and Madam Vastra, who are always shown as strong women who can fight their own.









  • Just finished them instead of reading them right now, but “The Left Hand of Darkness” and “The Dispossessed” by Ursula K. Le Guin. I liked the world building of the first far better, but it didn’t hit at the politics I wanted to read about as much as I wanted, the second being the opposite.

    I don’t know why, but I just need content wrapped in sci-fi for me to find it enjoyable, and “The Dispossessed” in particular was what I was looking for, an exploration of anarchism grounded in examples and thought experiment.

    Both of them are fantastic books, and definitely worth a read for anybody interested in science fiction, sexuality & gender, and anarchism.
