"Well, in DA2, dwarfs and qunari were streamlined. We found out that many players were confused by the concept of females and therefore, we optimzed the races and made them male only, and added more respawning trash mobs instead of females of either race. We felt that excluding lore and adding less content would lead to a far more compelling streamlined action gameplay experience."
This is basically what I imagine the official response would be.

Pretty sure they gave an explanation for it.
Something along the lines of... for every character/NPC that's another asset or some such and thus costs more money to put in. I don't know the exact wording, they explained it with ME2/ME1 and DAO. Same reason why in ME2 you don't see female Turians or Krogan, or why in DAO you only ever see the same Qunari Model for Sten and the Mercs.

This made me laugh so hard.
I'm pretty sure Felsi wasn't the only female surface dwarf in DA:O. I'm sure there were one or two in the Frostback Mountains, in that merchant area.

So they had to make a cheap game, and that is what we ended up with.
Also, there are female Krogans on tuchanka in ME2, and it is also explained that they almost never leave their homeworld, because of the whole genophage thing. Female turians were left out in ME1 for the same reasons there are no female dwarfs in DA2, time and budget. Why they weren't introduced in ME2, I have no idea.
