This echoes my thing about femShep best.

What she looks like doesn't matter, but the fact that they had to do a whole contest with the general public unlike with the male Shepard really does. Because that sends a message that what she looks like DOES matter.

Believe me, I work in EDUCATIONAL gaming and I have to get into arguments with developers over how they design womenfolk (for grants that are supposed to emphasize diversity). It's ridiculous.
