You shouldn't lie about people when they're posting in the thread, and we can both quote. I've never supported the "blonde dumb barbie" stereotype. Quote me if I have, and I'm blonde myself.

Then why not attribute other things with brunettes, blondes, and black haired people and add those in?
Because what was already added in fit the others. I wouldn't have really bothered to add something else for them since they looked pretty fitting to me.
Because if they had too many variables we would be basically doing a repeat of the first vote.. except wait their control group is totally NOT a control group and the single variable is NOT hair colour and we are indeed just doing a repeat of what we did before. Which begs the question, why is there a vote at all? Why couldn't Bioware just have touched up the original Jane Shepard and have been done with it?
I'm glad you kind of ignored what I said for your own opinion that you seem to present as factual. Then you ask two questions that I bet you already know the answer for yourself.
Now the simplest answer seems to be the best one here. Freckles and green eyes goes with a red head shepard so they used that the others can just keep the normal look but with different hair colors.
Now why didn't they use touched up default shep is pretty easy to answer. There would still be complaints and most of them would be that BW is lazy and doesn't even want to bother making a new and more detailed female shepard. I'm sure you think it would be easier and more preferable to just use a default shepard but that's your preferance not the majority. BW obviously wanted to do something for the fans and give them multiple choices instead of doing it themselves. Its generous but it seems that people have a hard time understanding generosity.

Oh no you d'int!
As someone who apparently missed all the controversy about blonde Shepard, I take this as evidence that it was the hairstyle, not the hair colour, that attracted most of the votes the first time.Eurhetemec wrote...
Tbh, I'm now kind of sad, after all the previous discussion, that the blonde isn't winning. Surprised, too. Could change still, though, there are only a fraction of the votes in so far that went in last time.

They're not trolls, but they ARE nonsensical in a, "My vote won and now they restarted it just so my vote can lose" kind of way.
^Not even, I just thought that was funny. But seriously, Blondie not winning is a major loss for Blondes.
And 1/1000th Blondes like myself.

I hope to whatever higher power there is out there that this is the last voting session for femshep. The reaction of the community, and above all the media, has been appalling. In what was a purely democratic process that was hosted through the social network of Facebook, irrelevant of whether the voters were, are or will be ME players a selection was given and a consensus achieved. The model (they were all models btw) #5 was chosen, whether it was for hairstyle, hair colour, skin colour, etc.etc. What should have been a pure victory, for finally we had an official femshep, a heroine in a major frachise that did not have the usual selling points of halfnakedness, ****iness or exagerated anatomy, we had a ****storm. The reactions of many on the BSN community was expected concerning some major points like race or faithfulness to the franchise and those opinions were respected but as democracy is the rule of the majority, the #5 template was chosen by the anarchic mass of Facebook but also by the more dedicated members that exist on the BSN.
The reactions of several members and of media outlets concerning the hair colour was nothing but inexcusable. JUST BECAUSE SHE IS BLONDE IT MEANS THAT SHE IS A WEAK WOMAN AND A BARBIE STEREOTYPE?? The same Shepard that has been the heroine of two games suddenly became a lesser being just because she was blonde? What is this? A flippin' witch hunt? Do we, in the 21st century still judge people by superficial characteristics? The epitomy of this ridiculous behaviour was that article in that PC website. An article so full of discrimination and bigotry that if we exchanged blonde for "blacks" or "asians" it would have been full out racist.
If the objection to the hair colour was so predominant what stopped the community from acting civilised and ASKING BioWare to have a second vote concerning hair colour rather than acting like spoilt little kids and throwing tantrums because the toy we got was not the right colour. I have no problem with voting for various defining characteristics of FemShep for through choices is democracy built and above all she is as much ours, the entire playing audience that has played both ME and not only a select vocal few, as she is BioWares'.
Unfortunately what should have been a celebration of internet democracy became a travesty.
This post is win.
