Because the Doctor is NOT A SEXUAL BEING NO MATTER WHAT. It's like thinking of Mr Rogers in That Way. Just WRONG.
One might almost say that it approaches the cognitive dissonance of thinking of Kissinger as a sexual being. Almost.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
No, this Doctor is the sexy sex. With undertones of sex, and a dollop of hot snark on top.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
It's like thinking of Mr Rogers in That Way.Oh this was not the mental image I needed. Why do I never learn that a final check of the board before bed can lead to cardigan-induced screaming?

Really? I just figured it meant she's working on a Who/Rogers pairing.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Pshaw. Kissy's a fame ho, and it's totally easy to see him as a repulsive sexual being.

I keep hearing that. And seeing the screenshots. And reading the reviews. And being tempted. Despite it being very, very wrong.

I just figured it meant she's working on a Who/Rogers pairing.And I would read it. Perhaps while blinding myself with a hot poker, but I would probably read it.

While the 'hood of Make Believe would be vastly improved by the addition of a TARDIS and a Time Lord, I am most certainly NOT.

OUCH! does the embassy pay for any of it?
Not hardly. And it's the embassy's fault it's that expensive (long, and boring, story). But the woman responsible is both exceptionally dim and two years past retirement age, so impervious. And, since the embassy's screwed up in another way that may end up costing me and the DH $20,000.00, we are picking our battles and turning off the DSL.
People actually do that? Poke you from behind with their carts?
First time this happened to me was a woman with a handbasket who kept running it into my ass in line. I would scoot forward and she'd hit me again. I finally rounded on her, to discover she was wee. I think she peed her pants. I also think she had very different ideas of personal space and was just bumper-locked.
WALK LEFT/STAND RIGHT! It's not that freaking hard, and it may save you from getting pushed down the escalator by me.
Ah, tourist season in DC.

Trust me, David Tennant is waaaay sexier than Christopher Eccleston. He played Casanova, fer chrissakes!
Edit: the BBC Doctor Who site has some more pictures and an interview on its "News" page. Plus, Stephen Fry is writing an episode of the new series!:
