I am only interested in dating women and I think lesbians are hot so this will determine if I make my character a man or a woman. Thx

Yes, Siora is the one for me when I play the female DeSardet. You have to be careful with conversation choices, there is a mod "Romance Hints" that helps with the romance choices. Her romance doesn't complete until late in the game, there are some guides on the internet that are of some help. A note, if you use any mods before completing the DeVespe DLC then the DLC won't work properly, if at all. If you can complete that DLC you can then activate mods, but not before, something gets written into the game and turning them off temporarily doesn't work. There is a touching conversation with Siora after the DeVespes have been dealt with, if she is you love interest.
