No? You don't find 'I don't want to romance a wimpy-girly Alistair' and 'if I wanted to romance a girl I would romance Leliana' to be saying exactly that?
Being a girl is bad. Romancing a girl is bad. I've learnt something today.

Well, FYI that wasn't my comment. I'm just saying I don't think it would be appealing to make him look away. And 2, I frequently romance Leliana as a girl.
I know that wasn't what you were saying and I was only addressing the fact you said that
no one was saying it.
*headdesk* NOOOOO!!! omg no!!! I don't want to be romanced by a wimp!!! If I wanted to be romanced by a girl I would trigger Leliana's romance!!
One sentence says 'I don't not want to romance a wimp' and then next says 'If I wanted to be romanced by a girl' which makes wimp/girl interchangeable in this context which pisses me off. If you (in general, not specifically you, cmessaz) think girls are all automatically wimps then I really don't get why you play a female Warden.
THIS YES!! I like it as is, I dont' want some wimpified girly Alistair to romance, I want the one who asks my PC to the tent and the aftertalk and all the little parts with it. I don't want some shy girly-man!
This time it even uses wimpy to describe the state of being a girl. You may not have been saying that but it definitely was being said.
