A tragic day for whiny baby-men — the BBC just announced that the next Doctor Who will be a lady. Naturally, these sensitive souls took at once to Twitter to make their displeasure known. And to make jokes about Doctor Who turning into Nurse Who amirite fellas high five!

Here are some of the best of the worst Tweets I’ve seen so far. I can’t decide which are my favorites — the ones lamenting the loss of a crucial male “role model” or those suggesting that a female Doctor Who makes as much sense as a male Mary Poppins (which would be perfectly fine to me, by the way).

Female Doctor Who?? More like Nurse Who. Birds aren't smart enough to be doctors

I'm actually quite shocked at the decision to cast a woman the should call it Nurse who now lol

Fuck you BBC. Fuck you lefties. You are in the minority. The BBC has been taken over by leftists. Can't wait for the show to fail. #doctor13

Doctor Who is now a woman. Must have had genital reassignment surgery. BBC continuing it's cultural Marxism. #Doctor13

"Doctor Who" what's the deal? Pushing the "gender fluidity" narrative now? Remember when entertainment wasn't social engineering propaganda

Doctor Who Could've been far worse knowing the @BBC Be thankful it's not a wheel chair bound tranny

This is why I gave up watching libtard movies and TV shows. A female Doctor? What a joke. You just killed a classic TV show. #DoctorWho

This woman Doctor Who thing feels like another loss for reason and another win for the regressive left tbh

The BBC have literally just ruined all the heritage and history of Doctor Who making the new Doctor a woman

— Aydin Osman (@Aydin_Osman96) July 16, 2017

Doctor Who officially ruined. Time Lords being women not an issue, 50 years of tradition out the window is. What next 007 being Janette Bond pic.twitter.com/Hj3buVMx8s

#DoctorWho died today. He didn’t die nobly as you might expect. He was murdered by Political Correctness. #NotMyDoctor

— James Huckabee (@hucksworld) July 16, 2017

Well the 3rd wave feminists have won and they aren't even going to watch the show or buy the merch… #NotMyDoctor

— william parslow (@williamparslow) July 16, 2017

PC brigade and violent feminists will have a field day. But we'll get the last laugh when the show ends up cancelled well done

— Greavesy (@GreavesyX) July 16, 2017

#DoctorWho So patronising to women to be chosen due to political correctness. No room for merit and talent if PC comes first.

— Holomatrix (@Holomatrices) July 16, 2017

A female Doctor Who would be the same as making a male Mary Poppins.

Stop the madness.

— Kevin G. (@BasedKielbasa) July 16, 2017

It started with woman Ghostbusters, Star Wars now Dr Who, what's next 007 Jane Bond , it's not women wanna be equal they wanna be superior

— MJDebio (@MJDebio93) July 16, 2017

changing "Dr Who" to a woman to be politically correct because it worked out sooo well for Ghostbusters. Next is Caitlyn Jenner as Dr. Spock

— Joe Cowin (@racerdog45) July 16, 2017

Women have their own heroes like RIpley, Buffy and Wonder Woman, there is no need to take away role models for men #notmydoctor

— P.J. Lowry (@PJ_Lowry) July 16, 2017

I don't have a dog in the Doctor Who discussion really, but I do think it's a shame that a role-model has been taken away from young boys

— Tom Oldham (@thomasoldham) July 16, 2017

@ChrisChibnall without broadcasting a single episode has destroyed Doctor Who. The most positive male role model on television and you go pc

— Keef (@Keef44002574) July 16, 2017

My childhood role model was just stolen from me. The one guy who actually is a good person on t.v. that all young men could look up to.

— Michael Penner (@Electromoth) July 16, 2017

I remember when Ripley, Leia, Buffy, Xena et al. trailblazed great women characters. But now, feminism seems pleased with mere pandering.

— Bradley Yellop (@bazz83) July 16, 2017

Doctor who is shit
Replacing a male character with a woman is shit#Ghostbusters
Let's replace Julia Roberts pretty woman for pretty bloke

— lee williams (@winklewilly89) July 16, 2017

I support classic Doctor Who, not the Cultural Marxist ripoff the BBC is vomiting at us now. Jodie Whittaker is #NotMyDoctor

— J. Davila-Ashcraft (@revjackashcraft) July 16, 2017

I am shocked the new doctor is a women why break tradition… I'm not backing down women empowerment, but in the fight place… #doctor13

— Alex N (@__AlexN_) July 16, 2017

I shall watch with continued interest but to me today another part of our heritage & culture died

#doctorwho The regressive left are going crazy over the choice, next they will want a transgender to take the role as the Doctor.

— The Gurkha (@doctorjoker007) July 16, 2017

I point towards the current feminist libtard schadenfrued regarding Doctor Who as an example of the bullet dodged with Hillary Clinton. https://t.co/LNW3PCoIzZ

No, I don’t understand what that last one means either.
