I know Who fans don't want to hear this, but Doctor/Rose (or Doctor/Amy) is about as creepy as Edward/Bella in Twilight.
Exactly. I loved the Doctor and Rose in Nine's era, when they were just crazy friends, but the whole Ten/Rose thing really put me off. Is it supposed to be okay because the Doctor has the attitude of an eternal teenager, or is it just supposed to be okay because he's pretty? Either way... eh, I'm really not quite comfortable with it.
And yeah, the even playing field is exactly what I love about Doctor/Romana - it's not all about him being so amazing and lifting her up and making her something more. There isn't a scary imbalance of power or anything, they just have fun.
