This isn't inappropriate at all. I have no idea what you're all talking about.
EDIT: As a squad mate, I thought she was completely unnecessary. She and James were very bland characters which, despite trying to like, I can't bring myself to use. EDI has a great tech skill set but I can't justify using her over other characters.

Though, that ****** was just a little too real for me. Any time I used EDI, I just had her go naked since she was less ****ty that way. :|

I think it fits with the theme of Mass Effect. If you're supposed to be genetically perfect, that'll put a mass effect on your vaj.

The general consensus I am getting from the BSN, is that EDI, as a squadmate, was a horrible idea. From my point of view I actually loved EDI as a squadmate. She was my second to Garrus and was on my squad for the last mission. EDI, as a squadmate gave me a more womanly and emotional side to synthetic schema, rather than Legion in ME2. Edi and the Geth are what made me stray away from the forced death of them in the destroy ending, and made me pick crappy ol' synthesis =/. If Shepard lived through the synthesis ending, and Edi was technically now half organic then I would definatelly romance her over Miranda or Jack =P.
So, for those of you who actually liked EDI as an addition to the team... Why?
EDI Is my favorite Squad mate.
Javik is my second.

- I started taking her on missions because EDI gives tactial advice all the time, so might as well bring her body
- I was using her to bring some extra Overload alongside Garrus, then found her more survivable, surprisingly
- I almost always buy the Spectre office's Paladin Pistol ASAP and EDI could make use of it

EDI's lines were funny, interesting, and very well-delivered, but I never saw her as anything more than a construct. The reason is a little meta-theatrical. I don't mean she's a construct just because she's the robot in the story. She's a construct because, with the celebrity voice and voluptuous chassis (edit - and cameltoe, seriously what's up with that), she was made as fan service.
However, for EDI, that bias works! It's like her/Eva's body was designed to be an infiltrator, to deceptively appeal to people. My out-of-game perception just reinforces that notion, making her seem more effective inside the game. It's a bit of a twist I found surprising and fascinating.
So, what I would normally see as a pandering/marketing tactic, actually brought an twist that works for this character, thus EDI is very memorable to me.

And the concept of her being the Normandy was just lessened with the robot body, because now most people only see her AS the robot body. I also think it would have been more original and interesting if EDI was the one who fell for Joker without the silly body. It would have really brought a new dimension to the idea that being 'human' is so much more than and not defined by an arbitrary shape/body.
Finally, I felt she was useless as a squadmate. Nearly everything she did could have been done without the body (like hacking into Cronos). And I'll never forgive the fact that when it came time to overthrow Cerberus, I was forced to do so with EDI by my side rather than Miranda or Jack.

Her body having huge ******, cameltoe and "synthetic skin" so that she won't look "unattractive" is f***ing horrible.
And she's useless as a Squadmate. Overload? Garrus. Incinerate? Liara with Warp. Decoy? Vega's fat arse with Fortification. And all of those are better fighters than EDI.
I'd really have preferred if her body was less hypersexualized and you didn't get saddled with her as a squadmate. I'd have rather had another Infiltrator-type with Tech Powers and guns. Batarian Infiltrator/Engineer with Shotguns, anyone?

EDI as a character is great, her discovering "humanity" through her body is great.

I'd rather look at EDI's ****** and huge knockers than a Batarian's fat ugly face.

I agree. Great character to talk to, but useless in combat. I would rather have Legion back in my squad, he at least stayed alive for more than 10 seconds.
