I’m sure asari would’ve figured out anal stimulation just like humans, I’m sure they could’ve deduced vaginal (or “azural” or whatever it’s called for them) stimulation without too much difficulty, and given that they have tons of nerve endings in that area of the body just like humans do (not in the same configuration at all, of course, but obviously Shepard touched somewhere below the hips which induced an unconscious, spontaneous meld-state in Liara… we can assume it was synonymous with orgasm), touching of many different kinds would be enjoyable for them.
You assume the azure is located anywhere near their birth canal...I don't think this is the case from what we've seen.

Just like most humans don’t care for anal intercourse but some do, I’m sure most asari don’t care for what humans understand as “intercourse” at all, but some do. I have no problem with asari, some of them at least, accommodating partners who want that kind of sex.
But why would they even think that appropriate, given that the idea of any type of penetration is very foreign to them. To humans, intercourse is part of our sex, so it's no big deal to think about it in different places. I wonder how many humans would be open to having very alien sex, especially sex that could be quite painful. I don't know...imagine if we met an alien species that wanted to have sex by pulling on your hair really really hard. Basically, I think there are also psychological barriers that would stop the asari from desiring this type of sex and not just physical ones.

That said, I do have a problem with nearly every pairing of asari we see in both games being with a male of a different species. I think asari who would tolerate the traditional human (or turian, or krogan) view of heterosexual intercourse would be a minority, and those who actively enjoy it an even smaller subset. We see one pair of asari holding each other on the Citadel wards in ME1, and that’s the only one I can remember. I think there’s another pair dancing in Flux. Female human and asari pairings, which should be as nearly as common as asari/asari pairings, are nowhere to be found (other than the Al Jilani video in LOTSB, but that barely counts). You can’t convince me that bi-curious and xenophilic human females wouldn’t be gunning for asari left and right as something both exotic and more than marginally familiar, and you can’t convince me that when humans broke onto the galactic scene, asari didn’t see women as the Goddess’ gift to their race. Physical attraction is pretty heavily hardwired into the DNA, and while there are always outliers on any bell curve, the curve we see in the games seems to be missing the bell. We only see the edges, and it makes zero sense.
'Tis a shame indeed.
