Missy is Revealed as the Master, Internet Becomes Awful
As Dark Water revealed Missy was short for Mistress, which is the female form of Master. Missy is the Master.
Unfortunately, many people started becoming raging assholes at this revelation, making me sad.
The change has prompted a mixed reaction on social media form the show’s fans, with some praising the twist, and others mocking the gender transition.
Below are some odious examples. I guarantee Gamergaters are included in this, and they will make life hard for Doctor Who fans. I gave pushback to the last one.
So, who’d have guessed it, the Master has had a sex change…. #DoctorWho— Dave Maydew M0DCM (@dave_maydew) November 1, 2014
THE Master. That’s MASTER. Not fucking “Mistress”. #DoctorWho #DarkWater #whoismissy pic.twitter.com/ZSYOTmafSK— Hamfisted Bun Vendor (@MetalOllie) November 1, 2014
I thought the Master was a man? Missy is a tranny #DoctorWho— Twiitterjabi (@HeyItIsLeeema) November 1, 2014
Again, I gave a response to the last person myself.
@HeyItIsLeeema As a Muslim American, I think your comment is completely and totally repulsive. You make the rest of us look awful.— Richard Wierengo (@The_War_TARDIS) November 2, 2014
This make me go to a sad place.
