Also, women have narrower shoulders then men, which is why it looks awkward for femShep to hold her arms out. It just looks forced -- and she's bad ass enough that she shouldn't have to walk "manly" to be perceived as tough.

Real women soldiers, many of whom walk from time to time.

A soldier is always marching. ALWAYS.

That is one of the most hilarious things I've read on this forum.

 That is on purpose, isn't it?

My wife brought up a valid point on her latest playthrough of ME2 which we both hope will be addressed in ME3

She felt that her female Shephard didn't move in a feminine way. She always sat with her legs open like a guy would, and the dancing... oh boy. I know both male and female Sheps both sucked when it came to dancing...

Did anyone else notice this? Hopefully we can have a nice feminine Shephard in ME3. Also... the hair. Hopefully we can have better hair. Some longer hair would be nice.

Who's with me??!

Better hair is coming.  That is for sure.

The shoulder bit is not always applied for all women. At least my wife has very strong wide shoulders from years of training

We can say that, as she is a marine and spent most part of her life surrounded by men during missions, it's passable for her to have such attitudes.

I don't think that works in the ME universe, where maybe 1/4th of the military is actually comprised of women -- even in the battlefield. FemShep shouldn't need to worry about conforming to attitudes and behavioral patterns typical of men in that diverse of an environment. Besides, it would still have to be a daily conscious effort to hold your arms out like that. I don't think Shepard acts tough for the sake of acting tough.

Just take the walk animations from ME1. And voila.


Even male Shepard walked like a gorilla in ME2

True. But we can easily look at femShep's character model and see that she's a pretty thin woman -- muscular -- but thin.

Just as an aside one of the things that bugged me the most was Shepard's skeleton at the beginning of the game. It was so obviously male and since I was playing a femshep, it almost drew me out of the game. Doesn't bother me now, but at the time it was, BAM, something's wrong here. I don't know why that mattered so much at the time, but apparently it did.

[mousestalker]

Here's a solution. Give every Shep a pony and have them ride everywhere. Then the devs only have to worry about animating the pony's gait and not doing two separate ones for each sex.

Well, my wife has similar complexion, broad shoulders following a slender waist. And it looks very good, i cant complain So at least thats not something i see as a must to change for femShep, and i want some consistency between games also

Or we could have shep kill the pony and then have a Normandy BBQ.

I know absolutely nothing about the difference between male and female skeletons, so that didn't bother me at all  I was more focused on going OOOH METAL THINGIES and being really annoyed at the way Miranda's echo gets noticabley cut short.

I have no idea why but that annoys me to absolutely no end.

You better be nailing that tonight.

I think it's passable for her to have an attitude to result in fairly masculine movements, even body structure to some extent. I prefer it. Even body builder women have female bone structure or even move with some femininity or androgyny, as opposed to outright masculinity.

The narrow shoulders and shorter arms also explains why they swing their arms more when they walk. 

My wife hates it when I comment on how her arms swing like a pendulum when she's walking
