I've never seen anything of this nature before from him, so if he actually said it all, I'd be interested in the context - because I'm quite sure that we didn't really get it. I suspect it's about "Coupling", which is obviously a comedy I'm a fan of, and even if it isn't, I'm still not bothered by it until I see twenty quotes of this nature and a track record in his writing to indicate there are issues with women. (You and I have been down this path before...) Disliking Amy isn't an argument for Moffat=misogynist imho, and I'm quite certain that there are fans out there who will draw a very long line to make that case. If he said that stuff, then he's a plonker, but I still like his writing. Having a thing for policewomen in short skirts is no worse than me fessing up to having a thing for men in military uniforms. We all objectify at time, and I'll confess I've made some terribly crass jokes over the years. If it would have been a bloke doing that, it would have been labelled sexist and misogynist. I think that's why I can't really bring myself to take it seriously or care - a) I'm not sure I believe it was the full picture and b) neither having a moan about the opposite sex or making a suggestive comment is something that should doom you to accusations of sexism imho. Because I'm well and truly stuffed then.
