I don't disagree that anything can happen, I question why something should happen. I believe that show has to remain internally consistent, I really don't see that gender swap would be anything but a stunt. Fundamentally the Doctors character is asexual (at least until recently) being male/female or anything else shouldn't affect the character. So I just don't see a need mess with it.
I'm sure a talented writer could give a plausible reason for any change you might want to make to the Character. But I've been watching since I was 3, it is in fact the first thing I remember watching, so I want his future direction and decisions to remain consistent with all (well maybe most) of his previous choices and actions.
Is there some reason you think the Doctor should have been a woman?
