If Cullen is available for both genders, how do you think they should differentiate the romance between the two genders? I would like for them to have some gender-specific pronounce. As much as I love Kaidan, a lot of what he said was pretty gender neutral. Maybe some gender-specific scenes would be nice, but I think it may take up a lot of scarce resources they have at the moment.
Hmm I like the romances being pretty much the same, except, you know, he might call a FemPC "beautiful" and a BroPC "cute" or something ... though you could call both genders the same thing even there.

In theory, don't guys and gals both kind of want to hear the same thing from an LI? They want to know their feelings are reciprocated, that they are appreciated. I guess the difference would be (a stereotype, I know) a girl may want to hear how you make them weak in the knees for reasons X, Y, Z and a guy may rather hear that you make them feel safe and secure. Forgive me if this comes off as offensive. I know sometimes what I'm trying to say doesn't come across exactly right. [smilie]http://social.bioware.com/images/forum/emoticons/andy.png[/smilie]
Okay I believe the part that I bolded ... so yeah I don't buy into stereotypes. I'm a girl and I don't want some guy making me safe and secure or any of that rubbish haha xD I think guys and girls are the same, but even so, stereotypes exist, which is why I often like to play as a guy and avoid that cheesy stuff.

Me personally, I think Cullen should be like Alistair and Garrus, and be a little present specifically for us ladies ;-)
Well obviously I disagree since I am a Cullen fan and want to be able to romance him xD And I'm still pissed about not getting to romance Alistair!!!! lol Ughhh sorry Zev fans but I'm discovering that he was a poor substitute. Zev just didn't FIT with my Warden. But what choice did I have.

Sorry if I offended anyone. I just don't want the annoying rapid, yaoi fangirls getting their claws into Cullen and turning him into a shadow of his former self. Like they did with poor Fenris and Anders. I'm so glad Alistair escaped that.
Again, sorry if I offended anyone.
Well it is a little offensive since I am a yaoi fangirl lol but I know you didn't mean me specifically. Plus trust me, straight romance fans can "ruin" a character for us m/m fans just as easily. Lots of Fenris x FemHawke pics REALLY turn me off! But who cares; it makes those fans happy.

Making a man that's a match for Cullen physically would be a serious, serious challenge.
I predict lots of reloads. Or trips to the Black Emporium.
.... tip: aim for "clean-cut" rather than "attractive" 
Dude, that's why I want to be able to play as an elf again! I think an elf guy would be sooo cute with Cullen. And they BETTER give us a Black Emporium again or I'm gonna scream. I dunno how many time I had to go and fix my Hawke's chipmunk cheeks and derpy eyes after arriving in Kirkwall...
