Is the Eleventh Doctor more reticent with his emotions than previous Doctors, perhaps in response to the emotionality of the Ninth or Tenth Doctors? Or is he just more covert -- "the Doctor lies" -- perhaps untrustworthy in his show of emotions? Does the Eleventh Doctor's emotionality or lack thereof affect how people ship him, or make him seem more alien? What about previous Doctors - was emotionality/rationality a part of their schemes?
