It IS Bioware's character. They know more about her than you do. Tali can be wooed by the fact that she was rescued twice by a handsome commander, who will go on to save the galaxy. That is important. Maybe you should be complaining about Tali's character instead.
That's what I'm doing. Complaining about Tali's character development being either shallow or inconsistent. If its shallow like you think it is, does that change the fact that its a bad move?
The male and female genders aren't seperated just by outward appearance. The suit doesn't have ANYTHING to do with it. It doesn't override the typical biological desire to mate with the opposite sex. As I said, it is evolutionary beneficial for a species to be typically desirous of the opposite sex rather than the same sex. Can you just consider the likely possibility that Tali is heterosexual? Come on. A man can do the exact same things that an attractive woman does, but that doesn't mean I am going to be attracted to that man. A woman can swoon over the handsome fireman who saves her, but that does that mean she'll also fall for a female who does the same thing? NO.
Wait wait, if we're going to bring evolutionary imperative into this, what about the imperative to pursue members of your own species?
I am perfectly willing to believe that Tali is heterosexual (never mind the confusing dialog I suppose, or the starting perspective that she was bisexual), but NOT that she falls for any man to come her way, especially when dropping expressing strong disapproval of his actions throughout the game. Then I come to how that should be resolved.
People can fall in love with others even they don't agree with every thing they do. You should understand this. I'm sure male Shepard manly charm played a part in this. And for the record, Tali won't even talk to you if you ratted out on her father, so you aren't really completely right anyways.
Tali is the least likely to because of that mask "thing". Judging people by their actions and not by appearances or stero-types is extremely (or was apparently) important to her.
And for the record, ALL the romances in Mass Effect are the same way. As long as you aren't a jerk to them in specific conversations, they fall for you invariably. You can kill the Rachni queen and Liara will still jump on you, for example.
Liara, interest in the Protheans, Miranda, looking after Cerberus interests, Jack, casual score, Ashley/Kaidan are actually influenced/have a reaction to your "alignment", Kelley, actually influenced/have a reaction to your "alignment", Garrus, actually influenced/have a reaction to your "alignment", have not romanced Jacob or Thane, Tali, where it makes the least sense, no reaction/influence by your "alignment".
