Seconded, though its more mono-sexed than mono-gendered. You could argue the asari were agendered if they didnt adhere to female sterotypes for humans.

Yes exactly, there is a difference between gender and sex. But bioware didn't bother to explain in game lol. Are you saying that they do adhere to female stereotypes for humans?

I would say many of them do. Based on the clothing and some other cultural aspects I would say they definitely adhere to the more feminine side of the gender spectrum in alot of their culture, though obviosly this is not universal in their species and in fact we se many whose gender expressin is more androgynous.

I can't go into many specifics here but we can't assume that asari culture has none of what we call "masculine" virtues withn it. That would be the opposite of how nature works.  But also I must say that the virtues we call masculine are called that because we have labeled them as such. So in essence asari could act like ghengis khan and still fit into their own mono-sex/gendered society.   The problem is that people can't look at things outside of their own frame of reference and by people I mean humans lol.

The Irish are used to that during the rare times they are sober, and unlike every other group it's okay to make fun of the Irish without being Irish yourself, though in my case I am part Irish.


Everyone probably has a little Irish in their background.  It's hard not too, when they're so well known for their loose morals and constant inebriation.  Soulless buggers get around, is what I'm saying.  If you know what I mean.

So then can i say for fact that Americans are all a sod bunch of obese slobs, destroying the eccosystem one cheeseburger at a time? Stereotypes are always hyperbolic and rarely true, assuming they're factual isn't the brightest thing to do. The more you know.


Americans, no.  But 'muricans, yes, they are exactly as you described them.  Americans, however, are a diverse crowd, with many different reasons to dismiss and hate us.  We have given the world as many reasons as the world needs to prove that we are soulless, evil, greedy, ignorant, racist, sexist, cis, centrist, leftist, rightist, capitalist, marxist, egotistical, uneducated, overeducated, red neck, white collar, too rich, too poor melting pot of fear and loathing.  It's like the old Arby's 5 for $5 deal.  You can mix and match any 5 qualities to prove any American is exactly what you think (s)he is.  You're welcome, we're a giving nation that way.

On the other hand, everyone knows that all the Irish are exactly the same.  Inebriated, angry and soulless.

I’m surprised Bryan Johnson hasn’t shut this thread down yet, in between the sandwich-making curvy women jokes, the drunk soulless Irishmen, and the fat, slobby Americans. =0p
Gotta love BSN!
