Since I've been reminded of the existence of this thread for unrelated reasons, here is another in-universe quote. Credit goes to SOTO for unearthing it: "'No, thanks.' Sam was surprised to find she did not need to think about the answer. 'There's some stuff I need to do here.'

'Oh?'

'I can't explain. You wouldn't understand.'

'Oh?'

'Yes.' Why did she suddenly feel on the defensive?

'Because I'm a man and you're a woman?'

'Yes, actually.'

The Doctor raised his eyebrows. 'But I'm not a man.'

Sam opened her mouth to speak, then shut it again.

He continued, 'I'm not even human. Not even close. Not unless you count the ears.' He wiggled them to make his point."
