 A race that starts off as strippers for over 100 years isn't on my respected races list.

Yes, because every single asari ever does that.

It's true that not every Asari is a stripper in Mass Effect, but that doesn't change the fact that every stripper is an Asari.

Maybe it's because they've been given more flaws that they seem easier to see as an actual culture instead of an idealized one.

How do people forget about the less-than-ethically-stellar asari in ME1?  Lying liar Nassana Dantius and her slave-trading, drug-dealing sister Dahlia? Mallene Callis, who asks Spectres to hack her (asari-owned and operated) company's competitors, which is illegal even on Noveria?  Rana Thanoptis, who did some pretty nasty research on Virmire? Aleena, the fun-loving merc (for values of "fun" that include having days-long firefights with krogan on space stations that end up damaged beyond repair) who had no problem taking contracts for assassination?

Then there's the fact that Benezia royally screwed up out of ill-considered idealism and arrogance, and got her and her followers indoctrinated.  Not to mention, her relationship with Liara sucked even before she got mind-screwed.

if i lived 1000 years i would be a stripper at some point

maybe a soldier next

then a doctor

then retire

then sell surf boards by the beach

then strip again

then explore the galaxy

etc

1000 years is a long time to kill

The asari was never intended to be perfect from the start, like all spiecies and organisations, if I got it right (the marysueishly special humans may be a exception). The may have the political and economical power but that doesn't mean they are always right. For example their long lives makes them a bit conservative, wich is not necesarily a bad thing but sometimes it holds them back.

Humans aren't "marysueish" as they've been shown to be quite flawed from the very start of the games.

People that consider humans marysueish have failed to consider several important points in their analysis. I have a WOT I just posted regarding it.

 I am sure that in ME1 there is a human stripper in one of the clubs

You know, I just now realized that's supposed to say "aren't".

This really explains why we should let the Reapers destroy their homeworld (Survival of the Fittest). Maybe then put the rest of them into exile like quarians, cuz it would be funny.

Oh boy.. your just asking for trouble aren't YA  

[Chuvvy]

Asari are ****s for a good 400 years, this isn't a revelation.

[Jakedee010v2]

I don't care. An inteligent species is an inteligent species and no matter how werd you may find them they are just the same a us. Don't judge anyone or anything differently.

[Lotion Soronarr]

Asari have the Justicars. That alone lessens my oppinion of them.

[zingro]

Pointing the finger isnt gonna help you fight  the reapers Im guessing your gonna need every race on your side to fight them.

Unless
Shepard does an Independance day win by himself without the help of all the races uniting to fight the common threat, then you can go on your little witch hunt..

The same goes for every other race in the known universe, you wanna hate someone? reapers are a good choice for starters.

After the dust clears and humanity is the only living victor left in the galaxy,  then you can build your big sandcastle and claim you are the ultimate pefect species.


duh HULK SMASH! WINNING

No they wouldn't have. The Keepers had already been re-programmed by the prothean scientists.

And so the souvereign would try to command them earlier.And would have found someone like Saren far sooner,before humanity even leaved the solar system.

And dont forget, asari haters: Without them the turians maybee have bombed earth into stone age in the first contact war. And they made the turians pay reparations.

believe me, that has been brought up before and the argument goes 'humans would have defeated all of the aliens, the Asari only stopped them because they were afraid of us!'

I don't think I've ever seen anyone make that argument actually, you're just indulging your innate need to self-hate for whatever reason. 

Most everyone acknowledges that the First Contact War, had it actually involved full mobilization of turian and human fleets, would not have ended well for humanity but it would not have been a simple smash-and-grab for the turians either. It would have resulted in vast amounts of destruction throughout Citadel space.

I thought the Asari stopped it because a war between the Turians would have made council space unstable (Turians fighting humans would mean the turians could not continue their 'peace keeping" responsiblities in their terroritory or council space) and the fact that the Turians commited an aggressive action against an unknown race without the approval of the council.

[firefireblow]

The asari also have been dumbed down in ME2.

In ME1 Liara kept on saying how they are monogendered there is no him/her in their cluture, yet we have Samara keep on saying her and her daughters. So I have to agree somewhat, they made me feel a little different.

In the ME2 forum when discussing the council and whether or not they have ever done anything for humanity, May not be the exact quote by it has been argued as such that the Council ending the first contact war was purely self serving because humans are awesome.
