Well i'll wait to see how the universe feels in game and hope there's balance rather than react to what feels like bait.

Apart from that, the main scene we see Bro Ryder confronting somebody he is like a girl: "i don't need an army, i have a krogan" meh...pussy No, he's confronting someone like he's Tony Stark. Someone who is the epitome of male bravado.
Shepard would totally say somehting like "I am all that is needed to burn all this galaxy!" This cringe-inducing line, on the other hand, can only be followed up by Ryder shouting "Hit it!", stripping off his space suit to reveal a sequined leotard, and then go-go dancing to Great Balls of Fire.
(Though, to be fair, that *would* be a better sequence.)

Inquisition was the same. If you played as femQuisitor, then that opening scene of you, Leliana, Josephine, Cassandra, and Cullen founding the Inquisition, only Cullen is male. To be fair, though, Cullen is four dudes worth of teh Hottness, so it comes out balanced...

If you honestly think this is a valid complaint, and if this honestly bothers you in some way, realize it's the other way around in real life and this is just a damn video game.
Worring about the real life situation seems much more appropriate, don't you think?

Cullen keeps no one in check. In fact, he explicitly relies on Cassandra to keep him in check.

So, nothing wrong with having female characters in leading roles but c'mon, everythin in this game seems to be pointing towards femdom Spread your butt cheeks and take out the vasiline.

Inquisition was the same. If you played as femQuisitor, then that opening scene of you, Leliana, Josephine, Cassandra, and Cullen founding the Inquisition, only Cullen is male. In my latest Dragon Age Playthrough the entirety of Southern Thedas is ruled by women (most of them even lesbian/bi). - Inquisitor Adaar, leading the Inquisition (married to Sera) - Leliana is Divine Victoria (and dating my female Warden) - Celine rules Orlais (and seeing Briala) - Anora rules Ferelden.

Well, thank the Maker that we still have to Tevinter Empire! Praise the Patriarchy! We have cookies and blood magic Family traditions! We will stand as a bastion for all that is right and just!! That was a joke. btw, isn't the Qunari ruled by a Tribunal that has one or two females? I don't remember what kind of leadership they have.

Just so long as said sequined leotard has a deep v-neck that goes all the way down to the belly button.

Men didn't seem to care when everyone who was of importance was a man. I mean, it's not like that was the norm for, I dunno, the last 10000 years or anything. Suddenly a game posits a situation in which the other sex holds the top positions and ... well. Many people still don't bat an eyelid at the concept of men holding all the power (and for the most part they still do)
"FEMINAZIS ARE IMPOSING THEIR FEMINIST MAN-HATE ON US IN A VIDEO GAME! REEEEEEEE". Most politicians and lawmakers are men? Meh. Methinks the man has finally stopped and realised why the other side has been complaining.
FWIW I didn't even notice the gender imbalance.
