Eh, I see a lot of double standards in my day to day life, especially in Chicago, the Granola Girl capital of the Midwest.
Women do the whole empowerment thing, while holding double standards towards men. It's why I'm disillusioned with modern feminists. It's basically objectivism (the philosophy by Ayn Rand 'winces'). It's justified when they do or say something, but any different from anyone else and it's repugnant and repulsive.
Seriously though, You've just summed how I'd have replied.

In all fairness (and trust me, I'm one of the more well-known Miranda-romancers on the forums, or at least my previous accounts were, so I'm known for espousing this well), BW's attitude towards her wasn't really that positive. Casey Hudson outright described her as a temptress figure that Shepard, in the absence of their ME1 love, would go to. She's treated as a Bond-girl to a certain level, eye candy who is to be set aside upon the passionate reunion with the ME1 love (aka, the 'true' love). And she's the only female LI to get that treatment as well.
That said, in ME3, especially with Citadel put in the game, her content and romance is improved so much that she even rivals Tali and Liara as the main female LI for MaleShep. Her relationship feels much more fulfilling.
But, Shepard's treatment of her is still poor. You only get to romance her if you tell her to "Shut up and kiss me", Or in ME2, When she says she can't see herself equal to Shepard, Those lines annoy the crap off me.

That's not true at all. You can still romance her without using the Renegade dialogue, and you can convince Miranda to see and think otherwise. To me, she's the only person on the squad that is Shepard's equal. And her renegade kiss is rather teasing to her, and the 'shut up and kiss me' is rather fitting of their Belligerent Sexual Tension, where Miranda is worried about getting feelings for Shepard since she's never felt that way before for anyone, and Shepard is telling her to take it naturally. I'd hardly call Shepard's treatment of her as poor at all. It's a very adult, mature relationship compared to several of the others.
If you're a huge Miranda fan, you should visit the Miranda page over in the ME3/Creation/Squadmate forum.

I'm a kind of person that isn't very much keen on sex, Maybe that's why I feel that way. Miranda stated that she doesn't have the fire Shepard has, The fire that makes people follow him/her to hell, According to her. I'd have liked a paragon choice of talking to her about her problems instead of "banging" her, Then, We could have banged before Priority: Earth IF BioWare didn't throw her and the rest of ME2 squadmates into the garbage can.
I'm still kinda of new to the forums, So, Do you mind sending me the link?

Huh... Well, your paragon, so there's the problem. Miranda is more... experienced with sex, and a lot of the relationship does resolve around sexual tension.

As I said, just go to the ME3 forum hub, click on customization, and go to squad members.

I'm not really a Paragon, I'm kinda of a Paragade. But sex hasn't been really my thing, So why not give a fair share of both perspectives? It's just like the many screw-ups of BioWare in me3, Giving you too much freedom in ME1 and ME2, And ending up taking it away in ME3.
Thank you. 
I take it you're Australian?
I'm a major Australophile. Ever since I lived there for two years when I was 16, I've had a massive adoration of their culture, their geography, and especially their women.
Yeah, I'm Australian. You say you're an Australophile, but I'm almost anti-Australian. Mostly it's the accent and the fact that most of us (not me, obviously) are basically wannabe Americans. Pronouncing 'z' as "zee" instead of "zed". Saying "math" instead of "maths". And the very rare occasion that spell words like 'honour' and 'organisation' 'honor' and 'organization'. On the plus side, we're multicultural. Anyway, this is off-topic.

Like my brother would appreciate. He'd say something along the line of, "Pretty, smart AND she can cook."
He's a little old fashion. The "and she can cook" part would be said with just a small trace of reverence. 
My sister-in-law, who is a good cook, is his goddess. Sexist? A little. But they're very happy with each other.

Well, 'zee' is the correct terminology. As is math. No 'u's' and 's'.
Eh, so it is. In the off-topic thread no less. Friends request? We can discuss this more via message. I've personally heard and found for myself quite differently that Australians today are wannabe Americans (at some things).
Well, 'zee' is the correct terminology. As is math. No 'u's' and 's'.
'Zee' is not the correct terminology, only in American English which is a single dialect. As for 'math vs maths', either is correct, they are simply regional differences.
The American terminology is the correct terminology.
We got the nukes and military to prove it.
Steve Buscemi.
He so dreamy.
Sarah? Is that you? Seriously I thought my friend Sarah was the only person I would ever hear describe Steve Buscemi as dreamy. But beauty is in the eye of the beholder so more power to ya.

WE invented it. It's our bloody language. All you guys have is a shite distorted version of it, and on loan. Maybe correct in America and the 51st state, but no where else. Can't believe how ignorant some people are.
You invented it, we perfected it. American English used in American media is used as a cornerstone for learning English all around the globe. And the Midwestern/Western Coast dialect of American English is commonly remarked as the clearest and most easily understood English accent the world over.
Can't believe some people are getting so worked up over a bloody accent and pronounciation. Plus, might does make us right. As well as a far larger population.
Last I checked, people with English accents only lived in England. No where else.

Nope, I have been all around the world and have met many people who speak English as a second language with a British accent. Also saying you 'perfected it' is the one of most stupid, arrogant things I have ever heard, also it is an opinion and subjective.
Also, 'Might does it make us right' ... Is an awful philosophy, and also arrogant as well. What other types of people throughout history have used that philosophy?
I've lived all over the world, and most accents of people I met who spoke English as a second language sounded like an odd regional accent that came from their inflections of their native tongue and pronunciation seeping into their speech. As well, many who talk to me always ask about the American cultural and media depictions for which they picked up the language in the first place, so they typically use American pronunciation of certain words.
You saying that we didn't perfect it is an insulting and demeaning statement, and of course is an opinion and subjective. 
Not really; it's been the natural philosophy since time immemorial. Seriously, it's the might of the winners who gets to decide what is and isn't right. What types of people throughout history have use that philosophy you ask? Well, for starters, the British...
And the Romans, and the Germans, and the Greeks, and the Persians, and the Mongols, and the Americans, and the Spanish, and the French, and the Soviets, and the Japanese. The answer is: who hasn't?
