If it isn't a troll, they actually expect someone to answer those questions. I think I prefer thinking they're trolling. It does them a favor vs the alternative.

Which is one oft-cited complaint -- current companions (with the exception of SCORPIO, who's a non-bio entity, and Treek, who is optional paid content) are only female if they're romanceable. No female PCs have a choice of love interest. Consular and Warrior are able to have a "fling" with either Tharan Cedrax or Pierce, but these are not full romance arcs in the same way that Vette/Dark Jaesa, Kaliyo/Temple and Risha/Akaavi are available for male PCs.

It's a legitimate set of questions. Whether or not the devs are willing and able to answer them, it's worth a shot.

This sounds like a strange "live out SW sexual fantasy" request...

And not a rip was given. Some of the players in this game have just made the "romance" aspect of this game creepy.

They have evolved past these concerns and yet still go around in Tatoonine garb if they're a jedi or a hood black robe of Sith. So with every step forward there seems to be many steps back! Also that alien hate.
"It's now very common to hear people say, 'I'm rather offended by that.' As if that gives them certain rights. It's actually nothing more...than a whine. 'I find that offensive.' It has no meaning; it has no purpose; it has no reason to be respected as a phrase. 'I am offended by that.' Well, so *********** what." - Stephen Fry

*EDITED* This is probably just a symptom of being more male writers/developers in the room than females (This goes for the Gaming Community as a whole) for an inclusive role. However... I do agree there shouldn't be that much of a disparity but is there any? The problem I see, it could be the choices female PCs get to make that makes it hard? Or seem off putting? Jedi Consular Female You have some flirting with Theran though Theran comes off bisexual to me... Iresso is fully able to be romanced. All names below have romance as an option. Jedi Knight Female Doc Female Trooper Aric Female Smuggler (Male +1) Corso Sith Inquisitor Revel Sith Warrior Female Quinn Pierce Female Bounty Hunter Torian Female Agent (Male +1) Vector So there isn't any disparity... so it must be the choices. One choice that's been highlighted is the inability to romance a force user. Anyway, hope everyone sees Bioware did indeed try to make it even.
