"Gay Shepard thread" from girl's point of wiev

Posté 24 février 2010 - 03:00
When I was a young girl (much like Liara in ME1, only 103 then) I was totally "in love" with a guy who was at best a friend of a friend - in other words he was nice to me when I was around, but never went out of his way to talk or get to know me. He never said or did anything to suggest that he was interested in me (ironically he did turn out to be gay a few years later, but I digress LOL) but that didn't change how I felt towards him.
Liara may have very strong feelings for Shepard, but just because she does so doesn't in any way reflect upon Shepard's feelings for her.

I play almost exclusively as MShep. He's been an engineer and a soldier, paragon and neutral, Earthborn, spacer, and colonist. His name's been different every time. None of these are canon Shepard, or 'John Shepard.' Jane Shepard, as much canon as John, can be gay, bi, or straight. There is nothing to demand that all MSheps be straight to satisfy some claim that 'John Shepard' is straight, because a lot of us aren't playing 'John Shepard.'
I've never played John or Jane Shepard(boooooring names) and I don't intend to ever
Off-subject: I once made a Shepard called Tapas Shepard cause I was hungry for Spanish food.
I will give you three guess's as to what name I give to my Sheps as their first name...
Tapas Shepard?

Hey, your allowed to chose the sexual orientation of your male shepherd, their just happen to be no gay guys on the Normandy. tough luck
YES! good point.
First off, its a Video Game
Second, as far as lore goes and as far as the developers will say (which i totally agree with); LIARA is NOT FEMALE. she is an ASEXUAL being that can reproduce with any sentient being.
THIRD, Thread Starter, you're not even a gay male what does it matter to you?
Forth, Maybe Kaiden just wasnt that much into you...

Nobody is expecting limitless choices. The reason we have this thread is because those parameters are too restrictive and do not make sense considering the existence of female same-sex relationships in the game.ImperialOperative wrote...

We're talking about an RPG here, not a novel. BioWare tells us that we can create OUR Shepard however we want. We CAN chose Shepard's sexuality, but only if our Shepard is female.
BioWare's glaring exlusion of m/m choices in ME games + banning of same-sex romance threads is bordering on homophobic.
Sorry to break it to you, but Bioware doesn't make games where "you make your own true to life whatever you want" character. Bioware provides parameters for you at their discretion, and you go through them at your liesure.
Bioware games are the "Choose Your Own Adventure" of the video game world.

Arik7...this thread is no longer serious. We're trying to get it closed.
We want our *real* thread for *real* discussion.
This is just a trollfest at this point.

I was playing Crysis recently and I know this is slightly different but I want to know why they just didn't let us choose the sex of our Yeomen just like you can choose the sex of the voice of your suit in Crysis.

start pedophile:
"I only like 12 year old girls. The fact that Bioware FAILS to put children in this game is just sick. How is my shepard going to get his kicks now? From an adult??? EWW NOT MY STYLE"
/end pedophile
I mean, they already gave us the option to mate with a different species (bestiality?), whens it enough?

Just like there's never enough talking about straightness.
Or sex...or money...or drugs...or stealing my neighbor's car.

...We already had the dicussion about how the pedophile raping 103 kids =/= the gay man sleeping with 103 men.
Let's not go back to that depressing topic okay?

Let me give you some fun facts.
In order for a thing to be "sexual" in any way shape or form, it needs to reproduce through sex. Liara reproduces though mindmelding, and using genetic material as a catalyst for mutation in the self fertilizing fetus. She is Asexual. She does not engage in sex with either gender to reproduce.
However, to provide a balanced analysis, femshep is human. Human engage in sex, and have sexual preferences. While Liara is neither homosexual or hetereosexual, the act of femshep having a relationship with Liara is homosexual in nature. Because while liara does not engage in sex, and she reproduces asexually, she in fact, has a sex, female.
In short, for Liara, its a normal relationship. For femshep, its a homosexual one. A femshep who romances liara clearly has homosexual tendencies, but Liara herself is asexual.

has anyone ever think maybe the writer of the game does not want a gay Shepard it is his story its like writing a book or a movie the writer choose whats happens in his story everyone else is just the actor or an director they have no say in the story that much
its an opinion so don't get all mad or crazy i know how a couple people in forums get
A gay male shep would be bad for sales & endorsement.
