As you say - it's about phrasing. I wasn't calling you down, just noting that you're more likely to get other people's hackles up saying what you did. In particular, there is a substantive and very real difference between saying "A woman's strength is in X" and "I would like there to be a female character whose strength is X". These are two very different statements, and one of them is an excellent and perfectly acceptable thing to say... while the other is, however unintended, an expression of sexism. It's good to be clear in what you mean, that's all.
For what it's worth, I agree - there aren't any likeable female characters in the game currently for me. I find them all quite unpleasant and would not choose any of them as companions. However, in my case, the same is true for all but one of the males, too. I don't really see myself making any kind of emotional connection with any of these options - with only one exception, and that one tentative.
And don't worry - you're very far from alone in that sentiment.
