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.
Yeah, the imposition of human gendered concepts like male, female, even cis and trans are kind of not applicable to Asari. While the game does depict them all as blue female bodied people, I'm also reminded of that atmospheric background conversation you get in either Mass Effect 2 or 3, wherein a group of diverse aliens each argue that the Asari resemble their species the most, before concluding that they must be perceiving the species differently, possibly because of some kind of Asari effect on other species. Naturally, they're designed the way they are because it's a AAA game and booba is well received, so both canonically and cynically, the Asari look the way they do because you're human.
