I never knew that men and women walked differently. Just as a heads up, we all don't walk like runway models.
Thanks men
Exactly. I'd really love it if they just created personality postures to choose from, rather than 'male' and 'female' animations.

Something like Dragon Dogma's could work. You could change posture in scale of timid-intimidating and stance in scale of ladylike-macho, though of course something else could be used to describe different stances than gendered adjectives. But I think these changed bit your walk as well. Though I'm not sure how this carried or if it even carried to the cutscenes.

What's with this unisex thing?
Oh, here is a reference link regarding male/female walk article which also contains additional references, should you wish to pursue the topic.

Please Bioware make a relaistic running animation, for men AND females!
Here a nice clip:
If you look only to the legs you can't see a difference between a woman and a man. 
(Look in the middle of the clip at the group with 5 running people).
you know what would be funny? having the men move like women.

First off, all but one of the sources for this article are more than ten years old. Second...I don't really understand what point you're trying to make? Yes, there is a masculine walk and a feminine walk, but those walks aren't exclusive to the genders people like to associate them with. In some sense, it actually proves my point: men and women are both capable of masculine and feminine posture. As the article cited, it has more to do with sexuality than anything.
Besides, there's more to stance and posture than masculine and feminine. Confident, demure, stuck-up, laid-back; there's so much more Bioware could do with their animations than conform to gender stereotypes.
Female characters can have their male walk as long as it works both ways.
others do it,why cant they?
I can't immediately think of any game which has character with player selected gender using different animations in cutscenes, though it would depend a bit on how you define cutscene.
But it's not a matter of why can't they so much as why haven't they. In DA:O the cutscene tool worked by assigning characters specific animations, one of those characters was flagged, it appears the tools they use for Unreal and Frostbite have the same limitations. To change that they would have to note the problem early in development and change the tools early on so that all the content built over the rest of development could take advantage of it. Apparently they haven't noticed the issue or don't consider it high priority.
I'm guessing that expressions of femininity isn't high on BioWare's list of concerns.

It's a nice clip for what running in light training wear looks like. Running in boots and a heavy, semi-stiff armored space-suit looks a lot different.
it is fine the way it is. only a small percentage played femshep, right?
While female suffered a lot more, I have to say the male animation looked like complete crap too. I mean the way he walks (even in cut scenes but not as bad there) it looks like a has an enormous ****** in his anus. And god the clipping was awful!
