Mass Effect 3 will have the ability to have same-sex relationships for both the make and female version of Shepard.
Quote:
Bioware's Casey Hudson revealed on his Twitter page that Commander Shepard will be able to engage in same sex relationships in Mass Effect 3, if that is the direction that players want to take with his/her love life.
Hudson said he was happy to confirm this bit of info with the following Tweet:
"Mass Effect 3 supports wider options for love interests [including] same-sex for [male and female] characters, reactive to how you interact [with] them in-game."

People are already complaining this would ruin the canon of the story or their character's own story somehow. Of course the complaints are about the male Shepard having the ability to be gay and forgetting it was usually possible in the other games with the female Shepard.
Not sure if Mass Effect 1 had it available for both genders but I know Mass Effect 2 didn't allow it to be possible with the male version of Shepard.
