So I’d understand why the asari wouldn’t have gendered anything on their own, but you think that once they saw other races, at least some would choose to present as male. Every asari in the three games is presented as female, and I think it shows a super simple understanding of gender and lack of imagination.

It’s really kinda boring that every asari would choose to be female, especially since I’m sure each individual has their own preferences and attractions. I’m realizing how shallow Mass Effect’s politics are, and how much broader their world could have been, instead of reducing each alien race into Roman wannabes, sexy blue ladies, and the lizard proletariat.

TLDR: No male asari feels like trans erasure.

    This is why the Orcs in Elder Scrolls interest me. They are outcasts and "savages" for material (or magical I guess) reasons, and they don't fall into the "the good ones" shit often from what I have seen.
