Well once again, if we are to take this quote to mean Time Lords have no concept of gender, that doesn’t remove all the gendered language and thought they consistently use throughout the show. So I guess it’s a matter of writing one of these sources off, the show or the novels? Or perhaps there is a way both can work together at the same time; I believe when I originally dissected the scene between 12 and Bill I mentioned the possible interpretation that perhaps the Time Lords don’t base all of the things relating to gender strictly on biology. But that still doesn’t really say much for a “they” usage...
