Text: “I’m a college-aged student who finds him (with a red arrow pointing to Patrick Troughton) more attractive than him (with another red arrow, this time pointing to David Tennant). I don’t see a problem with this, but I wish the fandom would be okay with this view as well.]

THIS.  I really have no attraction to Tennant at all, but I respect other people’s tastes.  And you all should, too.

And another one. I also find the Trout terribly terribly attractive. I did start out being attracted to Tennant (for about 6 months), but there was always this wish/half-expectation that there would be small breasts under that pin-striped suit (there’s something of the soft butch about him). I think in an odd way he appealed to the lesbian side of me. Troughton is just.. I don’t know. Amazing.

Er, regardless:

There’s often so much status-building in who we find attractive, and so much “ewwww grossss” about seeing people naked who aren’t genetic celebrities. I don’t get it? Attraction (of any stripe) is so personal, why trash the attractions of others? Ah right, status. I am cool because I like someone who is “cool.”

Errgh it’s just more of the “you’re different therefore you suck” bullshit defensive rubbish.
