i can't even read most of the posts being written about this, because it's too frustrating, quite often along with a nice helping of mind-numbing tedium.
doctor who is an interesting fandom because slashers don't tend to know what to do with it, since the majority of the characters (beside the doctor) are female, as well as super awesome (so the "the female characters just aren't as interesting!" reasoning tends not to work so well). there is just not enough cock and so most of the serial "any cock will do" slashers wind up over in torchwood, which is how we get awful shit like that RTD rps where straight women lecture gay people about what homophobia REALLY IS. we do get a certain amount of threesome fics, usually with rose, the doctor, and random cock (jack or handy, depending), which use the random cock as sexual thrill for the true, heterosexual love, but that's a different, though semi-related, issue.
