The Internet Reacts To The First Female Doctor

As we learned with Paul Feig's Ghostbusters reboot, nothing makes people freak out quite like a little gender-swapping. When BBC announced the casting of Jodi Whittaker as the first female Doctor in Doctor Who, the response was no different. 

While there was lavish praise for what should not be a controversial decision, there was also a huge amount of backlash from fans crying out for tradition, or making crass jokes about the 13th Doctor being unable to park the Tardis. Fortunately, there are more than enough people ready tackle those jerks via our favorite internet channels with clever memes and tweets.
