Hiiiii!! Another banger, per usual. I'm not sure I'd read Dr Who as aromantic given that the first 2 seasons of New Who have a major romance subplot -- can you elaborate on that? Do you mean Old Who, a specific season, or?

I’m curious if this is largely a western perception— do collective cultures also have these perceptions? Or is it largely in individualistic/nuclear family societies where the family IS largely based out of romantic love, so if you as an individual, don’t have that, it may be seen as what do you have?

I am kind of shocked that so many articles felt the need to specify aromantics still have empathy. Empathy is not the same as romance, so it feels like it shouldn’t be connected?

Great article and resources!!
