Looking back, I've just realized--yeah, I noticed the sexism. I was annoyed by it. A lot.

But it didn't surprise me.

I wish that it had been so rare, so out of place, so foreign to the show that it had surprised me.

Yeah, it didn't surprise me either, and that's what worries me. If I have become so inured to it that even I find it unsurprising...

Whereas Rory nearly dying AGAIN just made me yawn, and by that point I was too busy doing Robert Picardo impressions and giggling to pay too much attention.

Oh, I wasn't IMPRESSED by Rory almost dying. At this point, Rory has become Kenny from South Park. I was just annoyed as hell at the massive illogic.

Well, that and the fact that the only female guest character was not only presented for three-quarters of the story as a villain picking on the poor menz--why? because she's EVIL!--but literally couldn't speak for herself. Hell, Amy couldn't even figure out what she was supposed to do when the Siren held out her hands; a male character had to figure out what she meant and then tell Amy, just as a male character had to tell Amy how to save him.
