Well, Shep smiled before he ****ed Tali, so, she can't be that ugly...

Wishfull thinking, femshep doesn't look digusted by Garrus or Thane and they still look ugly.

It would make sense for xenophiles to find things that doesn't follow the stereotype ideals of beauty attractive.

She doesn't look ugly from what little we can see but I don't care. If you're romancing Tali because you're hoping she's hot, you're doing it wrong.

Yes, if they want a HB, why not Miranda, or Jack, or Kelly? (well everyone have their taste of HB)

Miranda have a manly face, Jack is about as likable as TIM, Kelly is not very important NPC gives her very few lines of dialogues and makes her a bit bland of a character, I broke with Ash on Horizon.
That leaves Tali and Liara, and I do prefer Tali because of the way she is.
The problem with Tali is the same as internet dating: you can like someone because of the way she is on the web, still you'll hope she's hot when you'll meet.

Really? I took that whole thing as him just not knowing how to compliment her. He even says he should have watched some vids. All his mannerisms were awkward till Shepard throws him a bone lol

He doesn't know how to compliment her because the features he finds physically attractive in a woman (like that fringe) aren't present in human females.

So just because he doesn't know how to compliment someone means he's not attracted to them? That's rather assuming. Hypothetically speaking: Say you compliment an Asari you want to date by saying "You have... nice... hair tentacles", not knowing what they were called and she gets offended. Not only because of the wording, but because it's against Asari culture to mention it (again- hypothetically speaking). Garrus does say right after his compliments: "Hopefully that's not offensive in Human culture. Crap. I knew I should have watched the vids."

Wait wait wait...Miranda's face is manly? I mean yeah, her jaw is more rounded than usual for most women and her chin's a little bit bigger, but her face isn't really masculine, especially not with the other features on her face.

Anyway, Tali's character is about everything that isn't the physical. Mainly personality, but also voice, and other abstracts are what defines her, not her appearance ("No one would want to court a girl with chicken feet" as BW once said), though it sure doesn't hurt.

I don't know exactly what you mean by that...
But sure, a Shep that romances Thane probably finds him atractive (or at least not repulsive), but to my human eyes he looks like a frogman.

[BlueMagitek]

As long as she's, you know, alien in appearance, it doesn't really matter to me.

[Srsface]

I would be so happy if that happened. Unfortunately, I'm sure they'll end up being some sort of generic cute space elf (This time in purple!), and all the obnoxious rabid Tali fanboys will rejoice, and life will go on.

I'm sure we could solve this entire puzzle already if someone's got a Quarian issue of Fornax handy (Come on, own up you little deviant i know you're reading this thread)

[Han Shot First]

The Quarians are completely unrelated to humans and evolved on an alien world in an alien eviroment. They SHOULD NOT look like humans with an exotic skin tone.

So just because he doesn't know how to compliment someone means he's not attracted to them? 

Garrus is attracted to Fem Shep, just not physically. He's attracted to her because of her personality.

It isn't just that Garrus stumbles over his words while trying to compliment Fem Shep, he compares her to Turian females and highlights the differences. Even when Shep first comes on to Garrus, he replies by saying there is no one in the galaxy he respects more than her. He doesn't say she's beautiful. Later in dialogue he also comments and how interspecies romances could be 'awkward,' and says he doesn't have a fetish for humans.

Although I don't play as Fem Shep, and was against Garrus being made romanceable, I did think that was a nice touch by Bioware. Humans shouldn't be physically attractive to Turian eyes, and thankfully appearance isn't what draws Garrus to Fem Shep.

Im sure not all the talimancers want Tali to look like a wannabe night elf.  At least that's the feeling ive gotten over reading posts about what tali should look like.

Sure beauty is in the eye of the beholder but let's say Quarians are damn ugly, what then?

No disappointment from me.  I think the Krogans, Turians, or Drell are all ugly, but they still look good because of the detailed character design.  As long as the Quarians are well-designed, it really doesn't matter to me if they are "ugly" in the wow-that's-a-weird-alien kind of way.  

I'm not a fan of Tali, so I don't really have any expectations on that front. 

[firefireblow]

To each his own. Some will no matter what find her attractive and others will not. Some will romance her just cause while other will not, and some just to find out what would happen(or story).

I will probably be romancing her just to find out what happens, like I did with Jack. Don't at all find Jack attractive, while others do. She scares me, but I still wanted to see what would happen so I tried it on one of my male sheps. Just cause.

LOL.

I thought the same thing in that dialogue after recruiting Garrus.

Shep: Hell Garrus you were always ugly. Slap some face paint on it and it'll look good as new.

Garrus: Ha, Ha don't make me laugh my face is barely holding together as it is.

Shep: Ha, ha. Yeah... I was serious though.

[Legbiter]

If they show the quarians they'll be some kind of space elf/Nav'i .

[SynheKatze]

Hilarity at its finest. That's what it would be.

If Duke Nukem can 'hit' on a huge ugly Alien then Shep better be able too as well.

Garrus wasn't physically attracted to femshep, he has no fetish for humans at all. His entire relationship with femshep revolves around respect. It might grow into something more in ME2, but for now its a respect based fling.

This actually brings up some cool questions about relationships in turians. They have little regard for art, respect craftsmen, military is completely tied to citizenship, apparently relationships can be respect based. Very cool.

They better not be. I am tired of space elves. Its always space elves, ALWAY SPACE ELVES. Its incredibly silly, almost as much as looking like a human with a rubber wig.

After seeing this, I'd be very disappointed if the best they can come up with is some kind of space elf.

[Kail Ashton]

i'll be faily annoyed, ugly species have no place in the universe~! I support the Geth!

Wow never seen that before, very cool!

I can say the say the same thing even without that pic though. They came up with the Salarians, the Turians, the krogan and the Yahg... I don't see why they would limit themselves to a space elf.
