I know you’re not all right. But hold tight, Amy, because you’re going to be.
So I have Feelings about this (no one is surprised). My primary feeling being yes good excellent - River’s queerness has been hinted at in canon but not strongly, so Word of God confirmation is pleasing to see. In general wrt to Moffat’s conversations on twitter about queerness in Doctor Who I feel like I want to send him some suggested reading or something so he can reframe what he’s saying in some ways, because once an academic always an academic, apparently. But twitter’s a lousy forum for these kinds of conversations and I grok what he’s getting at, that the world of Doctor Who is one in which current categories of sexuality as we understand it prove to be transient things that won’t matter so much in the future, and I like that a lot. Your mileage may vary, I do not speak for all queer Who fans, etc.
Anyway. Take-home point: River Song, definitely canonically into the ladies. <3
