Dang, I missed the "sideboob" controversy. I didn't get into ME until some time after ME2 was released when a friend loaned them both to me. I didn't see anything wrong with the scenes from ME, but then, I'm not a narrow minded puritan conservative, either.

Apparently, some people get offended if a gay/bisexual character comes onto them in a video game.

David Gaider, a senior writer for Bioware, responds to aforementioned people:
"So long as romances of any kind are optional and need to be actively pursued by the player in order to be experienced, they simply don't have a leg to stand on. Advocating that nobody should be able to have content you don't intend to personally use is largely pointless-- outside of a vague notion that such efforts should go towards other things, instead. Personally, it's not a
lot of effort to include them. The resources we can devote to a minority of players isn't great, but I imagine to those players it's quite worth it... and I would hope that some folks could be sensitive enough to be happy for those players, at the very least out of the selfish notion that
they may one day end up in the minority of some content issue and receive the same consideration if nothing else."
