Well...since the Quarians are generally of smaller stature that humans, and our own adaptability, plus the focus on pair-bonding...

We're not so different. Having 20 digits compared to 12, having larger muscles, hair...

I could see more human-quarian relationships in Me3, if they decide to expand on it.

Also...


If only for my mention of boozing.

Oh, so you're saying we all look the same to you, is that it?

You SpaceBuscuits are all racist!

Well, in the context of the game, we know a little about what she finds attractive: dashing captains who accept young ladies into their crew and let them prove themselves. And then all the stuff in the "I watched you so long" speech.

Personality. Go figure.

Hardly conclusive.

She's not Garrus.  She doesn't explicitly say that she isn't really into aliens.

We always talk about 'Dem Hips' and 'Dat Gap'... but what does Tali think of Shepard?[i]
------------------------------*snip*
Kasumi:  

Tali:  Dat.... everything....

Never thought of Tali as a xenophile.  This is an interesting development 

Well, she did go for it.

There must be something about humans, Shepard in particular, that she finds... attractive.

Agreed.  We have an attraction/interest in Tali's three fingers.  Her hips.  Dat gap.

Only makes sense that she would find something visually appealing about Shepard.

Indeed.

It would be something of an afterthought to her, I think.

Well, they look after their own. The other ships would very well try and help defend their comrades, their numbers are their advantage, and each ship is armed and has armed personnel.

I'd also suggest that if the Migrant Fleet itself is living on the edge of survival, indy caravans would be in an even more precarious situation RE: ship readiness/capability.

I think it's for some of the reason Red mentioned: Tali has found someone who is kind to her, wants to take care of her, and most of all; sees who she is behind the suit.
I don't think was actively looking for a human as a mate, she just discovered that her mate was human.

Agreed, though I do see a situation like most Talimancers with Tali.  Fall in love for the personality, then you start noticing some physical traits that are very nice in addition

Exactly, and isn't this what we all really want? If I found somebody so perfect for me, I wouldn't care if they were a three-toed alien in an enviro-suit. In fact, I'd almost wish they were

Oh, I know.  Like I pointed, out, I tried to explore what she might think about humans/Shep physically.  I was just saying that if we just go by the game, she spells out what she likes.

I see it as being a simultaneous realization:

Oh, Shepard's nice.  And those fingers...?  Interesting....

Saved me on Freedom's Progress?  So suave.... and so strong....

Saved by a dashing Captain?  How couldn't I feel something?  Especially with that body...

That's what we need to be less of an idiot species.

So far, not that I've seen, but I'm highly cynical. So I'm not the best person to go to for romance advice.
Yet my friends keep doing it. . .

Hm.

A safe assumption, considering the fact that it's Shepard himself that she's interested in and not the fact he's human.

A quick glance at the Normandy's systems showed her the elevator was in use, headed for the loft. In another minute, she'd be able to call it back down and... and head up there herself. And then, oh Keelah, what was she going to do? She could die.

Gripping the console steadied her. No, she could do this. She wanted to. Shepard wanted to. Wanted her! And she, ancestors preserve her, wanted him, thin fingers, funny legs and feet, wide, rough face, terrible dancing and everything else. His skin looked so soft, but at the same time he was so solid. The memory of his thick arms, circling round her and pulling her tight against him seemed to lift her up even now. Straightening her posture and pushing her shoulders back, she released her death grip on the edge of the console. The elevator should be available by now.

The trip gave her just enough time to wash the last taste of the herbs from her mouth and reassure herself that she and her suit were fresh. Shepard's door wasn't sealed, a final sign that he was... hoping for her.

It does work like that as concerns the people that really matter.

But it's not always easy to find the Tali in the haystack. Took me years of thinking romace was a load of BS.

[Mobius_118]

Personality is where its at, really. If Tali had been as vapid as Liara I would've stayed single.

I think this fits.
From 'Humanity':
_________________________

"I love your hands,"Tali had started innocently enough that evening as she took Shepard's
palm in her own, slowing running her thumb from his pinkie to forefinger and back again.

"My hands?" Shepard asked with a small laugh.

"You're fingers, to be exact," she responded, her tone as silent and serious as a school teacher. "You humans have so many of them. They seem like they would get in the way, make you clumsy somehow, but they don't. Quarians have six fingers, so do krogan, and turian, and salarian, but not humans."

Letting go of his hand, Tali reached up and ran her fingers across Shepard's head. "And then there's this; your hair. How many other species do you see with hair? You humans, Shepard, you're all so. . .exotic, I suppose would be the word, so. . .so alien."

"Does that upset you," he asked.

Tali shook her head; a small smile no one would see even if the lights had been on crossed her lips. "Not even a little."

*Day after Tali/Shepard's 'movie night'*

Tali: 'I see you', Shepard.

Shepard: ...Uh, I hope so. Kinda standing right in front of you. 

Tali: Dammit, you know what I mean, you know, it's a line from that movie we saw last night, 'Avatar'

Shepard: I know.

Tali: But... you just-I don't understand.

Shepard: I was just messing with you.

Tali: Your people's humor is frustrating sometimes!

Shepard: *crosses arms* You people? 

Tali: No,no,no! I didn't mean it like-

Shepard: *Starts laughing*

Tali: ...You bosh'tet! *Quarian pounce*
