Some of us like the thin strip...
Not me, Miranda was my kind of sexy, although truth be told, I'm much more interested in rekindling my relationship with Ashley in ME3. I missed her in ME2.
Yikes, Miranda and Ashley, you really like your chicks to be messed up control-freaks with fragile egos, don't you?
Hot, blue, space-lesbians ftw. 'nuff said

Hm. I don't recall Jack being all that easy going and emotionally stable. But Liara ... I dunno, xeno-eroticism isn't really my thing, and Liara had her own issues if I recall.
Of course, if they really wanted to push the romance boundaries, they'd make Wrex a romance option!
Sure, but at least Jack had an emotional and psychological break-through in the story, leading her character down a path of mental stability and change. Miranda and Ashley are just mega-bitches who change very little throughout the series to date.
As characters I think they're shallow and worse, have a lot of undesirable traits like speciesism, egocentricity and pretty extreme ignorance and arrogance. At least Jack had reasons for being messed up, she was after all experimented on in an extremely abusive situation for most of her life. What's Miranda's excuse? She's too perfect and her daddy bought her everything? What about Ashley? Oh dear, her father was a famous general that saved millions of lives, what a terrible burden that must've been!
Liara, Tali & even Jack showed more compassion, humility, honour and integrity singularly than Miranda and Ashley combined.
And yes, I've thought about this WAAAAAAY too much.
Well in the case of Ashley, you certainly see growth and development as she learns to work well with other species and respect them as crew-mates. Depending on the dialogue options you take with her, you can suss out her religious views and her favorite poetry. I think a lot depends on how willing you are to delve into the characters, and which dialogue options you pursue.
I pursued to romance options with Ashley, Miranda, and Jack (while stringing along Tali unforgivably over the course of two chapters of this saga!), and while I agree that Miranda may just be an off-the-rack sexpot, she also comes with a lot less drama than Jack.
And I can't say I go for the bald on women, so there's that as well.

I've played out every single scenario both games (1 & 2) have to offer.
Ashley's 'love' of poetry is just parroting what her father read to her with no genuine understanding or insight into the actual poetry. And her 'acceptance' of other races is really more like tolerance for the sake of the mission. Hell, your old-school, racist XO who FOUGHT in the Skyllian Blitz against the Batarians and starts off despising Turians and isn't even a major character ends up having a greater acceptance of aliens than does Ashley.
Keeping in mind that these are fictional characters, I would've put Ashley and Miranda off the ship at the first port I called into, had I the option to do so in any of the games.

I let Ashley die back in ME1.
The multiplayer of the demo is fine, don't know if I'll spend a lot of time doing it. But it's enjoyable in small doses.
