But they arent asexual like single celled life, Genders have no meaning to them so they're basically a genderless race with the anatomy of a Human female.

Monogendered doesn't necessarily mean asexual. It just means 'one gender.' You are assigning a definition to it (asexual) that doesn't exist in the game.

You are also incorrect in stating that the Asari are 'basically a genderless race.' The codex entries are canon, and here are some relevant quotes from the codex on the Asari:

An all female race, the asari reproduce through a form of parthenogenesis.

Although asari have only one gender, they are not asexual. An asari provides two copies of her own genes to her offspring. The second set is altered in a unique process called melding.

So directly from the codex, which is absolute undisputed canon, the Asari are one gender, and that gender is female.

That being said, terms like 'male' and 'female' might have not have much meaning to the Asari, and they may not think of themselves as female in the same way that maybe human or other alien females do. But that would be an aspect of Asari culture derived from the fact that they are a species that evolved with only one gender, rather than a reflection of whether or not they actually have a gender.

No. They don't really turn me on or anything, the only species that could do that is possibly Asari because they're very similar to humans, but I don't even find them all that attractive. I'd love to be friends with a Turian, and have a Geth living with me.

id hit anything.

i was a xenosexual before i even knew there was a word for xenosexual.

Nah, I was a Xenophile long before the ME series. I watched the master in action.

Edit: this is directed at the one who keeps saying human female and asari pairings are not lesbian.

Asari have been among gendered sentient lifeforms for over 2,500 years -- Thessia's animal life is never discussed in canon sources, so they might have been familiar to the concept of gender before first contact with the salarians -- and they have probably seen how they share most traits with females of other species, even looking similar to quarian females -- and now human females. Also, they call members of their species what translates to "she" and "woman".

Anyways, if you're female and want to be with an asari -- if they were real ofc --, many fellow humans WILL look upon it as lesbian, regardless of how you view it.

Only if they look precisely like a human female and have precisely correct human female genitalia that work the same way as human female genitalia.  Anything else is freaky and perv (like digging a dog, ostriche, komodo dragon, etc.).

I mean, c'mon.  Let's assume a horse with human-like intelligence.  You can converse with it, exchange jokes, etc.  Just because you can relate intellectually, are you going to want to bone it?  NO!  That would be perv as a form of bestiality, regardless of relative intelligence level.  It works both ways...the horse isn't going to want to bone you either.  The horse, appropriately and evolutionarily, digs other horses.  All is right with the universe.

Having Sex with an animal is definitely not consensual.
With an intelligent alien species? That is ususally not rape. So you can't compare the two because they are very human like in physical form and in intelligence. A horse looks hella different from a human as oppose to a turian to a human. 

[TJX2045]

The humanoid races (Drell, Asari, Quarian), yes. The random extremely different ones, no. Though I did just LOL at the thought of an inter-species romance with an Elcor. OUCH.

I agree with you here but I definitely LOLed pretty hard at the horse looking hella different part.

No.  You missed where I supposed a horse with human-level/type intelligence.  But still a horse.  You can speak with it, exchange thoughts, ideas, jokes.  But it's a horse.  Brains doesn't change that.  In either direction it doesn't change.  The horse won't want to bang you and you wont want to bang the horse...if you are a normal human being (and it is a normal horse).

Here's another.  Remember the movie ET?  The little troll-like (but cute ugly) alien?  Way smarter than you or any other human ('cause it's a highly advanced alien with advanced interstellar space travel capabilities the way we have transoceanic air travel).  You could converse with this little wrinkly troll, be friends, talk philosophy, art, whatever.  But you wont be wanting to bang the little bugger and it is highly unlikely he (or she) will be wanting to nail you.  It is NOT about the brains.  

It works as a thought experiment for ANYTHING.  An emu with human-level/type intelligence, a baboon with human-equivalent inelligence, a dog, cat, sage grouse, bat, rabbit...doesn't matter.  The banging is going to stay within species because that is the way evolution properly wires everyone.  Any deviation is abnormal and actually rather repugnant.

There is something called love, is very irrational. It works without sexual attraction too, so no, the only abnormal is the one who refuses their own biological behaviour and tries to force that into others.

OK...a xenomorph (the alien from the movie "Alien").  It is humanoid in that it is bipedal, has bilateral symmetry, a head on a neck atop shoulders, a chest, stomach, hips...humanoid.  Let's make it nonaggressive and have it speak and act like Garrus.  Friendly overall.  Picture that thing.  Now it is great you can be friends or friendly with this slightly reimagined alien.  It really isn't that much different than a turian, at least when compared to humans.  They share the same nasty needle teeth, claws, boney armor plate, spikes here and there.  You want to bump uglies with that alien? 

No.  Why?  Because it is much more realistically imagined in actual 3D vs the cartoonish rendering of a turian in a video game but the principal is the same. A faithfully rendered or 3D generated turian would NOT be something you would want to French kiss, let alone give a reach-around...or get one from.  Needle nasty teeth, spikey hard sharp armor plate, leathery skin, claws, the works.  Pretty much very similar to the alien xenomorph.  

An asari is nearly indistinguishable from a woman in the Cirque du Soleil troupe.  Blue skin not unlike the body paint or body suits that are sometimes worn by the very hot acrobat chicks of that group.  The kalamari head is, in cartoon form, fairly muted.  Might likely be VERY different in a real life edition vs game cartoon however.

I don't think the BSN is much of a judge of what is and isn't abnormal. An old saying regarding pots and kettles comes to mind.

Oh we CAN make clear and simple human judgements on what is and is not abnormal.  Everyone can and does all the time.  

There's the cutesy game fantasy issue of imaging banging some cartoon alien vs the real deal. 

BIG difference.

Uh-huh, like the real deal of banging an alien species that doesn't even exist so any kind of description based on something that is not even written in game is kinda silly.
