I would be all for but... would it be even possible? I mean would the biology cooperate? I can quite easily recall female-only species on Earth but not male-only. Proof me wrong with a compelling theory and I'm ok with that. Otherwise, no.

Sure under the tab extinct races.

Due to modern techs females can continue life even without men....the contrary is not true at the moment (thanks God).

Not for humans or other earth born species, but this is aliens we are talking about. By definition their biology and logic is completely impossible for us. Asari reproduction isn't what we would call a scientific possibility eater :lol: . And there's plenty off ways to make a believable all male alien species to work, some of wich were already talked about in these topic, and are way more reasonable than the Asari's mental probing lol

There have been a couple of theories put forward in the past three pages that are all biologically grounded.  At least as well as the psychic parthenogenesis of the asari.  It's doable.

I have a better idea.

Ditch the asari.

So? Many things are doable. Doesn't mean that they are needed or plausible. Especially not if the only reason is "...but the Asari".

Eh, we already have one parasite species, they're extremely rare (male-only parasites) biologically speaking so it wouldn't make sense to introduce another.

Gender is as meaningless to the geth as it is to the asari, but everyone refers to Legion as 'he' anyways.
 
So does that make the geth an all male race?

There ya go.
 
And you just know someone, somewhere has "equipped" a geth platform for this particular role. And I'm talking in-universe, not just r34.

Ditch the asari.

Yeah, this is what this is really about. We got blue space babes but the ladies need blue space bros. So forget the asari. These guys got you covered:

I didn't say it's needed.  But it is plausible.  At least as plausible as asari reproduction.  Again, not saying it should happen.

This thread is hilarious, but seriously speaking I'd rather them give multisex species that aren't the humans and quarians more females or lore explanations where not already provided (such as for salarians and krogan) as to why they are seemingly all dudes, rather than adding even more dicks. 3 female turians over 3 games, with one of them in multiplayer and the other two in DLC all in the same game is absurd when there are billions of them and they seemingly aren't a blatantly patriarchal culture, either. Same goes for volus, batarian, elcor, hanar and vorcha. Drell have the excuse of being so rare in general, but still any new character should probably be a female if possible. I'd rather they didn't make another species primarily for fanservice.

Not a sane person. The geth were never intended to be sapient constructs or anything more than labor and military equipment. That would be a bit like taping a dildо to a predator drone or an automated arc welder, which is sick fuckery by any definition. Plus after the rebellion, all geth become hostile to organics, which means at that point it would have to be whatever the robot analouge to necrophilia is (PROTIP: it's the same thing, because it was never alive to begin with). 

Personally, I never got the assigning of male pronouns to the geth by Shepard (everyone in universe definitely doesn't do the same). If anything the bipedal platforms (which aren't the only ones) resemble female quarians in general shape as much as the males, and Legion itself doesn't act even vaguely masculine, either. I'm more inclined to go with everyone in universe saying "it", since it wasn't designed or programmed with a gender identity in mind nor does it adopt one for itself (such as for example with EDI). Oh, and because it's a machine.

Asari are actually very similar to humans when it comes to reproduction, the only thing different is the part that allows them to reproduce with other species, meaning the nerve melding thing. So aside from this particular iffy part, there is nothing really strange or different about Asari reproduction.

They still have all the human equivalent of female reproductive organs.

 

Male pregnancies are more the domain of bad gay fanfictions. Any alien race that has the capacity for them will also most likely be non compatible to human biology. (and therefore will miss the main goal, which is the promised land of sausage-fest)

No one is saying that the male species has to carry its own offspring, though.  Again, read the theories that have been put forward.  They are as grounded in biology as asari reproduction (i.e. only vaguely) and are plausible. 

 

Also, are turians, quarians, and drell able to reproduce with humans?  Because, last I checked, that's not confirmed either, but hasn't stopped a bunch of people from romancing Garrus, Tali, and Thane.

I agree completely with these especially with the gender issues.

Em...but it is just straight impossible for all male race. I mean how would they reproduce? Asari at least have some sort of explanation. And who would want that tho? Most of the people don't even like idea of Asari :P

It's been explained in the thread. There are several biological based approaches that they can take.  All of which have the same level of explanation as the asari (as in, not terribly accurate).

Yea but doing that in universe that already has asari would just look kinda funny.

This thread... aargh.

Male and female have no meaning in monogendered species. All-male or All-female species don't exist.

Eh, I'd say they're in the minority. When the species popularity contests come up, asari are always at or near the top along with turians.

Yea, but asari appear female so this thread is about species that is all male looking. But then again, it would look silly.

And people, seriously, there's nothing weird about the Asari if you put them in the proper biological terms, instead of the mystic mumbo jumbo Bioware chose to give them :

Monogendered
social
asexual reproduction, with genetic recombination upon reproduction

Nothing of that is weird in any way. They do NOT use the 'father's' DNA, so that 'reproducing with any species' is just mystic PR talk. Nothing happens there. At best, the Asari need to feel an emotional connection or something like that to reproduce, or something whack like that.

Monogendered doesn't mean 'no gender.' The prefix mono means one or single. For example a monorail is a train that runs on a single rail instead of two. A monogendered species then would be one that has a single gender.

Yes, and that gender is neither male or female.

edit: I produced some godawful English there. Fixed.

I'm not sure what you are trying to say here.

 

Mono means one. A monogendered species then is one that has a single gender. In the case of the Asari, that single gender is female. The OP in this thread asked for a monogendered species that is male.
