Thane is an attractive alien and Grunt is a stud himself.

They're aliens. If you found them to be seriously attractive, I've have doubts about your mental health.

The problem here is the double standard. It's not that there aren't any attractive male aliens, it's that there are attractive female aliens (for any intents and purposes, the asari are that). No alien should be attractive to humans as a rule. There shouldn't be any blue-, green- or whatever-skinned space babes.

I'd add that they shouldn't be mammals or just have mammal glands on same place as humans. Supposedly alien who has all secondary sexual characteristics of human woman is straaange.

Hm... "why no aliens with chest hair" would be rather entertaining questionB)

The level of attractiveness has nothing to do with what the object is. I mean, buildings can be attractive. Chairs, cupboards. In that way, anything can be attractive.

Sexual attraction is a different matter.

I think Thane is attractive. Much more attractive than all the other romances for femShep...
I think BW did a VERY good job with his design. I didn´t play ME series cuz I don´t really like aliens. But thank god I changed my mind!
(it prob has something to do with his voice and awesome badass personality. I don´t find Kolyat and Feron attractive)

I am always surprised people find CG models attractive in the first place. [Or at least, ME models anyways] I always just romance the character I like the best. They all more or less look like sock puppets. Maybe its because I've done some modeling, and looking at models just makes me think of constructing them.

Asari are attractive to all Council races. It's a specific thing about them, not just a random human-specific trait thrown in.

If you find this unattractive I have doubts about your mental health.

That is a very high-quality pic. They even got the crack on his head correct. Impressive. I do find it attractive, though I doubt I would if Femshep weren't in it. I know this because I keep staring at her boobs.

His VA actually sounds like that. They really didn't have to do much tweaking at all, if you google him in some other works. You'd recognize him instantly.

I love Garrus and Wrex's personalities. But I would never romance them because I'm not attracted to that. To me, they resemble talking dinosaurs and though I think that's awesome, I would not want to romance that. Thane looks way too much like a lizard also.

That said, I've seen plenty of women who are interested in them and who begged for a Garrus romance in the second game. So obviously they are attractive to a lot of girls. And I still have Kaidan so I'm happy with that.

That's true as well; the Quarians are in a suit, we've only seen part of a dead female Krogan, haven't seen any female Salarians or Turians (in game).

I find Thane to be AMAZINGLY attractive. By far the most attractive ME character in general. That's just me, though.

In a thread full of Xenophobes on the first page... I'm going to be the xenophile to say Turians, Asari, Salarians, Krogans, Quarians, and Drell are way hotter then humans... I just hope there is a good non human S/S relationship, from a female Shepard stand point, the male humans are terrible ... but in my eyes he has the best relationship of all... Garrus!

I suppose Thane is meant to be attractive. He's the most human of them.

Mordin's a pretty spry old guy too, don't be hatin'.

Then again, we don't really know the Salarian or Elcor or Turian views on beauty, so we can't really judge them, can we?



You are right about the Elcor, but not so much about the Turians and Salarians. From the conversation overheard in the bar on Ilium we can deduce that the Salarian libido gets its fuel from a supple physique and from skin tone. The Turian's libido is fueled by head fringe. What this means is that neither Turian nor Salarian females differ much from the male and attraction is based upon other more subtle cues. The cultural cues regarding mating are unknown, save that Salarians negotiate breeding contracts with prospective mates and this implies a clinical approach to procreation.


And it is here that we return to the OP's original post, it is highly unlikely that there would be interspecies relationships between races. This is because the physical and cultural cues would be so variant and of course children are not in the cards for such a relationship (is this why they made Miranda a mule?). Therefore, the attraction would have to be based solely on a mental connection. Shepard is lucky in that he has the Asari and the affections of Tali, but it would appear that Quarians key in on mating cues similar to humans. On the bright side, you do have James Vega in ME3.
