I don't know! I think it was partially played for laughs--"Oh, isn't it funny how aggressive Amy is! Look at the Doctor's hilarious discomfort!" which....ewwwwwww.
Bad taste in mouth.
It was one of those cases where yeah, my feeling of physical threat would be smaller if the other person was about my size, as women are more likely to be, and I think a lot of people look at it and see that she can't physically force him into anything. But the emotional/psychological threat is pretty much the same from my POV.
I think I just really don't like aggression, especially sexual aggression, played for laughs. I think it's a dangerous message to send.
