I don't think that would end well for Tali. 
Probably not.
But since she isn't fighting for my Fem!Shep's romantic snu-snus, she should be fine. Technically, Garrus is fighting over them either. But if said pudding action is in Mass Effect 3...bring on the Mass Effect romance!
Hey, question! Did you all like how the Garrus romance subplot was initiated, or would you have preferred a different way to suggest a relationship with him? I seem to remember some people saying they were put off by how forward Shepard is about the whole thing. Admittedly, I think there are better ways to start a relationship other than "I WOULD LIKE TO TEST YOUR REACH WITH MY SALARIAN FLEXIBILITY PLS." Still, in some ways, I don't think he'd go for a relationship if Fem!Shep approached him differently.
Sounds weird, I know, but...well, he was talking about how said "Reach and Flexibility" encounter with that turian scout helped relieve stress which in turn helped them both focus on their mission. Maybe he was thinking along the same lines in the initial stages of his relationship with Shepard, but started to realize that he wanted more from it as it progressed?
I honestly think if Fem!Shep suggested starting a relationship another way with him, he'd be pretty level headed about it and say, "That would make things more complicated than they already are, probably not a smart idea." This way, it appeals to his sense of helping keep himself and Shepard focused on the mission. He brings it up in at least one of the conversations that, no matter how it plays out, it'll help them focus on the mission by either: 1.) Successfully easing tension, or 2.) Being so horrible that fighting the Collectors would be a welcome distraction from just how AWFUL it was.
But, again, as he digests the thought of being with Shepard, he says things like: "Special moments for us." "This is about us." US. HMM.
FFFFUUUUU
I don't know, what do y'all think?
Also: Garrus. Garrus, Garrus, GARRUS.
You know, I'd been thinking recently, maybe some of Garrus's "tension" was of the sexual/relationship sort toward Shepard (I do believe her dialogue begins, "You seem tense."). He does kind of seem to start flirting from the moment you recruit him as Femshep. Femshep might have just been saying, in her very forward flirt, "Oh hey, Garrus, I noticed you suddenly seem to be attracted to me. Wanna do something about that?" Meanwhile, Garrus himself probably didn't even realize he was becoming a little more attracted to Shepard than just as a friend... maybe he told himself that a little flirting was harmless?
Your theory makes more sense than mine, though, because it's a very turian view on things. Don't want to interrupt the crew, don't want to mess with the mission, gotta be relaxed enough to focus on the mission... Yep. Very turian.
