- Hey, the "Sex Drive" was at least a creative idea, no? And, let's face
- it, with some of the Doctor's companions there has to be at least a
- little steam built up.
-
- Seriously, though, the TARDIS could drain the "urge" for more reasons
- than propulsion. If is is somewhat alive, and somewhat intelligent, and
- if it does provide the travellers with local lingo (been suggested
- before), then wouldn't the travellers act as the TARDIS's long-range
- senses? And its legs, since it can't go anywhere alone? Sapping the
- sex drive might be a method used by TARDISes to keep their operators
- from straying.
-
- It could also be one of Rassilon's tricks. To prevent intervention in
- local affairs <g>. Since the TT Capsules were intended for OBSERVATION
- only, removing the reproductive urge might keep the Time Lords' eyes
- open, intellect functioning, and robes on.
