Aibu to not understand what this MP is talking about?

BBC News - Female Doctor Who robs boys of role models, claims Tory MP
www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-59421259

Anyone else see this?
I'm at a loss what his point is about "

"Female replacements on TV shows robs boys of good role models"

Presumably boys can still watch the original show with the male actor in it? They haven't been "cancelled"

Also, I'd make the argument that James Bond is popular, he is not necessarily a "good role model".

Or, is the MP making the link that it's women's fault for boys/men commiting crime? (Even though he denies this in a tweet)

@longtompot

My ed was amazed there are apparently only two, well three technically, role models for men/boys, and so far apart. She hadn't heard of The Krays and she is 24. Were there none others in between? The whole article just made us laugh, and my dh later when he read it.

What is certain is there are no good role models for boys in the current government.

Michelle Gomez would have been an insanely good Doctor!

Michelle Gomez would have been an insanely good Doctor!

I would happily ignore many, many plot holes if she’d take on the role!
