Default Shepard did not romance anyone. In case you people have forgotten romances are nothing more than optional sub-plots. They are not major components of the plot. the default Shepard had no romance. Ashley/Kaidan shakes your hand onHorizon then yells at you. Liara is friendly, but has no romance flags up. Default Shepard is not a renegade. He just made all the choices that would leave the least to carry over. Heck! How do we know default Shepard killed Wrex. Maybe since default Shepard was a rush then s/he was not able to convince Wrex to back down. No charm/intimidate.ReconTeam wrote...

Poor deluded wrongalite. Liara is CANON. That is an objective FACT supported by irrefutable scientific evidence. The real life Shepard made sexy time with Liara and used Kelly as a temporary bed warmer.
Hey, I think the Tali romance is the best and makes the most sense, but the FACTS are the FACTS. Liara romance is CANON. Out of my 6 Shepards my "personal canon" Shepard is an Sentinel paragon who romances Tali. As a member of the superor canonite super race, I can still acknowledge that Liara is the real life Shepard's girl and that real life Shepard is a soldier renegon. I know this hurts you... but you have got to get over yourself and your distain for the fact that if your fake playthrough can't be canon that nothing can. How selfish of you. I guess misery loves company.
I'm curious as to where you're getting this? Default ME2 Shepard romanced Ashley in ME1 after all.
There is no canon, and people are just trying to create threads that don't exist.
At most it can be considered the Shepard male soldier is as close to canon as it gets, but he is only a poster boy. His purpose to give an impression of who the game is about not saying, "You can only play as him or you're playing wrong."
Don't bring Dragon Age into this, because that game was obviously written with a canon,Obviously the original plan was to have a male Human noble romance Morigan, and have the God baby. Then the project designers decided they wanted to use an import function. Only now is the previous canon pointless. Now Dragon Age has no canon.They are trying to get rid of the canon events. This is a recent change. Obviously the first game had an idea of where the series would go with a set canon.
Mass Effect was not built to have a canon. The default Shepard in Xbox 360/PC only exists, because Bioware needed new players to be able to pick the game up and not be confused by a bunch of references from previous games. Liara is on the Normandy with you in the PS3 version, because she could not die in the previosu game, and the comic only plays after the intro.
The default Shepard no longer exists with the new comic system, and was only used to have a pre-built history for new players that had little carry over from the first game. The poster Shepard exists for advertisement, and to show off a better looking character. Why else use a model? They want a burly dude on the cover to attract the male consumer into thinking it is a "man's game." The man's game thing is the only reason female Shepard feels less like she was planned out. Bioware assumed the female character would be less important. This doesn't mean female Shepard is not important.
Look at the real clues. The comics, and books. Shepard's gender and choices are never openly discussed in these mediums. Everything is left for the reader to fill in with their own Shepard. Mass Effect was not built with a canon.
Ashley was advertised, because she looked good alongside Shepard as a strong female character. She was Bioware hinting at romance and sex scenes. Miranda was used for the same purpose in the second game. A strong female character to support Shepard in advertisement. They were also typical female support roles. They fit the bill, and were only used for advertisement.
There is no canon romance. Get over it.
