The homosexual part is a fetish.  Obviously, people can have a meaningful relationship with someone of the same sex.  However, the definition of homosexuality pretty much means "sexually attracted to members of the same sex".  As for the issue of manipulation: that is an important difference, however not all pedophiles manipulate children much like how not all men rape women.  

The fact that you immediately equate pedophilic relationships with rape and manipulation proves my point.  You belittle darth for his ignorance and then try to rationalize your own.

Also, I'm not a pedophile (before anyone accuses me of such)


Seeing how children are incapable of consent,  there is a degree of manipulation on the part of the pedophile. They could have a non-sexual relationship going so far as friendship, but you don't have to be a pedophile to have a friendship with a child. Also, pedophilia stems from a sexual attraction and if the pedophile acts upon his attraction then it can only be considered rape or molestation.

Then heterosexuality is also merely a fetish.

I'm all for opinions, but equating homosexuality to pedophilia, having the theocratically backed belief that homosexuality is something that needs to be purged, calling homosexuality a fetish.

These are opinions I can't stand for.


Then you're intolerant just like the opposite side of the fence. Don't be a hypocrite. Alot of people are hypocrites when it comes to this issue. They cry for tolerance and want us to be all jolly about it, while if someone disagrees with it and thinks it's wrong in THEIR opinion (that California pageant thing, prime example), they throw a pissy fit and find it unacceptable and they just won't tolerate it.

Funny indeed.

You're an idiot.

I promote these threads.

I am not interested in game developement, but I hope that one of these threads - on a myriad of game boards much like this one - encourages some young homosexual to go out and become a developer. Not only a developer - but a Lead Designer on RPGs.

That's when equality happens - when you take it from "The Other".

When young gamers - who happen to be gay - go out and start making games, start leading the design on games, and decide: "Hey, there needs to be an option for people like me." That's when these threads will die.

My posting on threads like this is in support of the possibility of it happening. And I won't stop until you bigots come and find me and beat down my door and drag me out of my house and burn me on my lawn - just like the hate filled, fundamentalist, Theocrats that you are.

Long live God - Death to Religion.

So you're trying to fight hatred with more hatred and death.  nice.

I know, people *gasp* actually have different opinions!! Am I hallucinating!?

You've missed the point so spectacularly that you've only made CC seem even more correct.

All forums are full of the mentally unsound but this is real standout example.


After reading this thread dude, honestly, the only person that appears to be mentally unsound here is you.  While the proponents of gay and anti gay arguments are presenting logical ideas on BOTH sides, you just sit there quoting and flaming people for being "ignorant."

South Park Michael Jackson anyone?

No, it isn't. Idiots are idiots, which that commentor was, and trying to invoke a Golden Mean to justify the remark is fallacious.

But I do agree that we're straying into political territory, which the BioWare Forums weren't set up for.

Let me guess. We start a religion debate. Eventually this thread is closed for discussion of real-world religion and gender politics.

 No, because Bioware is trying to avoid producing a controversial video game (for us in homophobiac countries like the United States), when ME2 already has a 'dark' storyline.

Although, I think this is an unwise decision as negative media attention can have a positive effect of game sales.

Also, HURP DURP SUBJECTIVISM IS A CONVENIENT WAY TO DODGE QUESTIONS.


Neutrality is the art of understanding subjectivity.  

To an extent heterosexuality/homosexuality extend beyond a common fetish in that they focus around an attraction to a specific gender rather than a fixation on various acts/objects/whatever but irregardless the general concept remains the same.  Homosexuality in the raw nature of "being attracted to X" is no different than pedophilia, and where it differs is that pedophilia commonly involves the act of manipulation. Although arguably most relationships homosexual/heterosexual or otherwise can involve similar manipulation and considering pedophilia extends anywhere from toddlers (3-4) to 13 (sometimes higher, usually up to 16 or in some cases 17)  it's pretty hard to definitively say at what age a person is capable of making informed decisions. (hence differing "Age of consent" in varying countries)

Fetish has negative connotations and I don't mean it the way you're interpreting it.

Right, because obviously I'm telling them to STFU and GTFO unless they agree with me.  Just because I'm voicing my disagreement with their opinions doesn't mean that they have to agree with mine.

Nope.  I meant it theoretically since you said death to religion as well however I don't care about these topics too much so I probaby won't post here much really.

There was no Lesbian option in the first game, Asari's have no gender.


Yeah... they just happen to have boobs and no "man parts"  xD


"Liara says her species is "mono-gendered - male and female have no real
meaning for us," and, if asked, says that she is "not precisely a
woman"

A Lesbian is defined as: A woman whose sexual orientation is to women.

Therefore since the Asari have no gender there can not be a true lesbian relationship.

Liara also says that in the context of human society her species would fill the woman role.

So yeah, it's a lesbian relationship.

Since we've strayed off-topic, let's reign it in a bit.



Assuming Bioware chose not to have a homosexual relationship for controversy reasons: Which party member "would have" been the love interest for said relationships (male or female)?

If a word has negative connotations then don't use it. Theasauruses are just a google away.

You're ignoring the issue of informed consent and continuing to equate pedophilia with child molestation. This, combined with your onbonxious pseudointellectualism, is all the argument against you that I need.

I don't know why we're all flaming about this when there's the more pressing issue of whether they'll have turian or krogan romances available... in the name of intergalactic peace... or something.

*** relationships are widely frowned upon. ME2 is a more commerical game. Adding a *** romance is bad for business. You want change? Become a game developer, and get your *** friends to do so, as well.
