Jack isn't flat.

I've seen chubby 10 year old boys with bigger ******.

1 I should report you to the authorities.
2 Go play the game again, just like Miranda the give you... tactical shots of jack, she isn't flat.
3 She should be popping out of that strap all the time if this game cared.

Maybe in your itty bitty ****** committee, but in the real world she is flat. He chest is equivalent to a slightly husky man. Those mosquito bites fit her fine though. Her outfit would just be too over the top if she had normal sized breasts.

Jack isn't "voluptuous" but she is well proportioned.

Can we go back to talking about the sex appeal of turians, please?

At least we know exactly what they look like.

For all you know, Tali stuffs her suit.

I'm weird, I love things that are different from myself. I'm even an avid fan anthropomorphism.

I find Tali attractive/alluring because a) you can't see her face, gives her the whole mystery thing like a woman wearing glasses and she has hips just like any other person and the shape of hers is pretty sexy....

I can't tell you about Garrus because well, I am unable to tell if another guy is attractive or not, let alone myself.

I think Shepard has reached Memetic Sex God status in-universe. So they're probably just jealous.

That's actually a very good question.

Garrus is just handsome to me - and all male turians are rather good looking in my opinion. Their voice plays a good part, I admit. If a guy's voice is deep and rattling in the chest, I'm hooked. However, Garrus's personality is what played the major part in my attraction. He is always courteous to Shepard, and never judges her; his sense of justice and duty gets me too. Garrus always wants to do something right, and that's how I feel most of the time. Things go wrong, and I just try harder and harder to make things right; then I feel useless. So, I have that in common with Garrus, and that is also what attracted me to him.

For me, Garrus and Tali bear enough similarities to humans to almost be considered attractive subconsciously. As Talimancers say, it's the hips. She has an exaggerated hourglass figure ideal for females. As for her legs and hands, it is minor enough physically to be ignored. Same with Garrus. He has the broad shoulders, the lean cheekbones (er, mandibles), small waist with height to add.
I admit, Garrus would not have been a personal romance choice had I been in Shepard's place (Like I'd dare flirt with him that way). And it's understandable that people would be leery of someone with skin like sandpaper. But I have to say, it's the body language that I find attractive besides his voice. That proud stance that exuded confidence, that ruthless efficiency as he sniped enemies at 300 yards, and that casual masculine manner he always had in the way he sat, walked or gestured. The other guys' movements were either stiff or closed off in a defensive manner like Jacob's crossed arms, Kaiden's hesitant gestures or Thane's coldly formal stance.
Look at a turian or a quarian at a distance with a mixed company of humans and other species and you will readily be able to pick out the volus or elcor long before you note the turian or quarian.

I'm not physically attracted to Garrus. It may have something to do with me being a guy. To me, he was always the awesome dinosaur-looking guy. Totally not dissing those that think he's attractive, but I personally could never see it myself. I can understand Femshep getting in a relationship with him and I could probably imagine why some might view him as attractive, but that's about it.

As for Tali. I'm not going to lie; the only reason I'm attracted to her physically is, well...

As has been said, it's fairly easy to see why Tali would be physically attractive: those curves are spectacular, and curves typically equate to femininity. As for the face, the most popular Tali fanart I've seen just makes her look human with either stripes, glowy eyes or slightly different coloured/different textured skin. So most people just see her as a human with an added twist, not much different from an asari. And heck, the shape of her shins just adds to her overall curvaceousness. This counterbalances the 3-fingered hands and the chicken feet. Just like an asari's overall human appearance would counterbalance the blue skin and the tentacle scalp.

Garrus is just anthropomorphised enough to still be appealing: he has the general body shape of a human, with added angularity. Facial features are reminiscent enough of a human (eyes, nose, mouth in similar proportions to a human face, fringe for hair). His personality is a major part of his attractiveness, I'll admit: he's confident yet vulnerable, reliable and loyal yet with a hint of danger, has a sense of humour and is spectacularly efficient. However, had he been a krogan, a volus, an elcor or a hanar with the same personality, I wouldn't have been able to get past his physical appearance, because those species start to go beyond anthropomorphic. Personally, turians are as alien (or non-human) as I'm able to find attractive:

tall + broad shoulders + tapered waist + strong legs + overall predatory air + gravelly, sexy voice = human alpha male

It's simple, really. And just enough to counterbalance the sharp teeth and claws (although those add to the predatory vibe), the hard skin, the mandibles and the odd collar.

I, and as far as I can tell, a lot of other Talimancers, wanted her to be an LI in the first game because she had a more appealing personality than either Ash or Liara. Bright, infectious enthusiasm, and positive, with brains to boot? YES PLEASE, DO WANT.

I didn't even notice that she had a figure built for sin until ME2, with her shawl being wound to emphasise her curves.

[Nashiktal]

As corny as it sounds, you actually can be attracted to someone despite their looks. Its not anything overtly romantic like pure love conquers all or anything, but you can become attracted to an alien (or animal).

The problem would most likely fall into the actual anatomy of sexual activity, but thats something I don't really tend to think about.

[lovgreno]

Dat voice you know. Both Keener and Sroka does a great job.

[Tasha vas Nar Rayya]

Tali: People are often attracted to the more mysterious or enigmatic characters. You see it all the time in fiction. And besides, she has an attractive enough body and well designed suit that people will sometimes assume that she has an attractive face.

Garrus: You have to be more open minded with Garrus. I find turians as a species very well designed. And the structure of broad shoulders and narrow waist is always appealing. The more alien aspects would probably drive a lot of people away, but I like it. Also his fringe and facial tattoos look good.

NOTE:  This topic is not putting down the characters of Garrus or Tali, nor is it putting down those who romance them.  I am just wondering why some see these characters as attractive in the physical sense.
-----------------------------------

I have never understood why some mass effect fans have some physicall attraction towards Garrus or Tali.

Garrus is like a dinosaur.  So i don't know why some see his body as attractive.

And Tali.....chicken feet, weird legs, weird hands, unknown face, nuff said.

Garrus and Tali i believe are the most alien out of all the romance opitions.  So i wonder why some seem so attracted to their alien attributes.  Or do people choose to romance these characters not because of their physical body?  What are your thoughts about this topic?

Dont know about Garrus but Tali has the perfect figure. Have you seen the hips? and the curves? Not to mention her voice. Also from what we can see and what we know, she looks rather human.

Personally, I dont know how people can find Miranda attractive. She looks like a blowup doll with Michael Jackson`s face. Dont deny it.

Also, are you ever going to stop trolling? You always say you arent to avoid getting in trouble but you clearly are. All you ever do is create threads like this. Not to mention your sign up date, and the fact that you have no registered games.

How the hell can a person say they can't tell is someone of the same sex as them is attractive?  Seriously, get over your homophobia already.

I honestly find them more attractive then most of the human characters.

[DrBobcat]

Although I have an intense attraction to turians, it was not something that came about instantaneously. At first, I thought they just looked interesting and had nice sounding voices. Yet, as I delved deeper into the lore and got to know the characters better, my appreciation took on a different shade. Mere curiosity gave way to genuine admiration. It may sound unusual, I know, but I've never been one for normalcy.

Personality means a great deal more to me than one's physical form. Let's use Garrus as an example. He has all the qualities I look for in a mate. He's intelligent, loyal, passionate and, above all, sincere. Even if it results in great personal suffering, he will refuse to compromise his values. In my eyes, this is incredibly attractive. The fact that he's a turian is no longer relevant. Individuals with such profound integrity are exceedingly rare and I'd consider it a privilege to be with such a person. To answer the OP's question, it was at this point that a physical attraction began to develop.

Unlike most of the respondents in this thread, I would pursue a relationship with a turian if they actually existed. Yes, there would be numerous obstacles. Intercourse would be difficult, if not outright impossible, and reproduction is out of the question entirely. My response, however, is "so what?" Since when are these things prerequisites for love? Yes, I doubt turian and human genitalia are compatible. But why does this matter? Many disabled persons, living in the here and now, lead healthy, fulfilling sex lives despite complications. The similarities between the two should be obvious.

I believe it is unhealthy to become too caught up in conventional ways of thinking. It isn't always as simple as "insert tab A into slot B." Hell, we're talking about a universe with FTL space travel and giant, robotic cuttlefish. Individuals willing to engage in interspecies relationships would find ways to make them work (chirality-friendly condoms, dental dams, toys, et cetera).

Getting back on topic, I'd like to briefly discuss symbolism. Interspecies relationships are easily visible yet poignant examples of tolerance. More importantly, their presence reminds us that love is (or, at least, can be) universal. Messages like these are, in my opinion, invaluable.

Then again, what do I know? I'm "weird."
