Favourite Feminist Moments in Doctor Who - #5 Bones of the Hand
Submitted by Sarah531
Martha Jones suffered appallingly during her time in the TARDIS. Amongst other things, she has to spend a significant amount of time in a world that openly despised and dismissed her on the basis of her gender and skin colour. During this time her best friend in the world, The Doctor, treats her, at best, like an obnoxious child.
The frustration and anger Martha felt during those months must have been bloody unbearable. But she is Martha, and she is wonderful, and she refuses to let the situation beat her down, even when almost everyone around her tells her to be quiet, she is defiant. She still speaks.
This is best illustrated when Joan, like everyone else around her, dismisses Martha’s achievements.
Women might train to be doctors, but hardly a skivvy and hardly one of your colour.
You can see in Martha’s eyes the anger and frustration which have been bubbling away for months, boil over. She promptly turns the tables on Joan, demonstrating her knowledge (which almost certainly exceeds Joan’s own) by naming all the bones of the hand.
Women of colour have very different experiences of oppression than that of their more privileged counterparts and, I like to think, this scene demonstrates that well. The experiences of women of colour should not be ignored or glossed over, as they all too often are in mainstream feminism. This scene reminds us feminists who have privilege to never write off the experiences of those who are oppressed in ways we are not. As well as showing Martha in full on BAMF mode.
Martha was just fantastic. And what a good scene.

I have become a fan of the Midgardian bebecee show “Doctor Who”.
It is quite good.YES.
So now we need Sherlock and Supernatural in the mix to complete SuperWhoAvengeLock.
The Doctor came to visit CCAD today!
Though… I can’t seem to find him.
Someone made a TARDIS replica for a project, and it turned out so amazing.
It’s sonic, totally sonic. I am sonicked up!
By the way, Abby is the best person on the planet and I love her and she got me these amazing gifts for my birthday and holy shit.
She also got me this ice tray that makes shot glasses. I’m going to get white girl wasted with the help of those.
Model of the 9th and 10th Doctors’ TARDIS
When you’re a college student and you’re procrastinating on finals,
build a 9 1/2 inch-tall model of the 9th and 10th Doctor’s TARDIS.
And yes, those are Iron Man Pajamas.
Remember that time I made a model of the TARDIS and turned it into a hat for TF2?
And then made gifs of my replays?
This is Kevin. He’s 27 years old, and he has Glioblastoma Multiforme, terminal brain cancer. A month and a half ago, his wife Tashi posted a request on Regretsy asking if anyone could custom make a TARDIS urn. Kevin wanted his ashes stored in one.
A few days ago, Amy, another user on Regretsy, submitted the second photo. Amy had been wondering what she could do for the couple when she found out the Doctor Who crew were going to film in New York. So she and her friend went there, and managed to talk to Jim, one of the assistant directors. Jim was kind enough to pass this card along to the cast, who signed their best wishes for Kevin.
We wanted to share this story with you. We’re glad to see wonderful people like Amy, and give our best wishes to Kevin. Sometimes, it’s more than just a show, isn’t it?
