I thought people here might find it of interest - sorry if links aren't allowed or this is the wrong place to post it, I'm not forum savvy...
Thanks.

I wrote an article on the ridiculous debate about same-sex relationships in ME3.

"In reality, these characters are none of these things. They are a romance OPTION. Option being the operative word – they represent fairness and equality. More choice for players in a game built on choice and variation."
I agree 100%. I explained it to a friend of mine by saying that in ME3, my character has the option of romancing a male character. In real life I have the option of romancing a male individual. Both of these are options, and I would have to make a conscious choice to follow either option.

This is clearly an article written by someone who is still an amateur. Regardless of your opinion of the performance of Jessica Chobot as Diana Allers, you needed to explore her romance fully with a female Shepard to get the complete details of *all* of the same sex relationship conclusions. Remember that every character of every game has their fans out there and having their favorite dismissed out of hand like that is not particularly professional.
Also, where was the description of Liara's romance? It seems like you did a very thorough examination of Steve and Kaidan's romance arcs but only a cursory glance at Samantha's while neglecting Liara's entirely.
ETA: You may also wish to reconsider the use of the word 'rape' in this context. Perhaps you could use a different word that isn't so charged with negativity, like 'violate.'
