How are you pretty sure? Perception is not physical in the sense of copulation. Human males and females are made for each other.7Makaveli wrote...
Uhmm, I'm pretty sure mind melding gives you the perception of an orgasm without the necessery direct stimulation. Besides that becomes an afterthought to the more potentially pleasurable experiences you can have. It is supposed to be life changing...

I think that's an oversimplification, and your statements discount the emotional connection present with the mind-joining between an Asari and her partner. It sounds like you're saying that a man or woman whose spouse is sterile cannot truly love him/her...? It sounds like you're saying that anyone who takes an Asari as his/her partner is a deviant...? Or am I reading you incorrectly?JohnnyDollar wrote...
Yeah but you forget the physical aspect that the human females give. IMO human males will eventually overwhelmingly stay with the human females once they realize there is no copulation with the Asari.
How do humans reproduce? Do human males have a sex drive? How did we get here?
We still have primitive traits that drive us. Some aspects of human instincts have changed very little over 1000's of years.
My guess is that the Asari mind meld has to be more pleasurable than a physical ejacualtion to drive the human males away from the human females in mass.
Edit: As far as copulation goes, that is superior IMO.
I'm assuming that the experience of the mind-joining is the equivalent of an orgasm to an Asari, or is the means by which an Asari achieves an orgasm. Liara tells us that, to the Asari, the mind-joining is an incredibly profound act. Their sexuality and reproduction both revolve around the mind.

How Darwinian and impersonal. You're starting again to discount the non-sexual part of relationships.

That is fair assumption, but that only accounts for half of the equation though. To human males, physical copulation may be more profound than mind melds. I am not saying that a man would not enjoy the experience with an Asari mind meld, but that the majority of human males will couple with human females because of physical copulation most likely being more profound to the males.yorkj86 wrote...

That's fine. But these still sound like qualitative/evaluative statements. The implications are that an Asari/human pairing is tacitly less meaningful than a human/human pairing. Again, very Darwinian.
EDIT: Or less valuable than any Asari/non-Asari pairing.

Well it's all speculation. I have proof of human evolution on my side though.yorkj86 wrote...
Actually, what are we arguing about, again? My joke? It was a joke. That the Asari won't eventually wipe out the human race by breeding with us is obvious.

I believe that's one of Freud's theory, developed during the Victorian Era when wives began to force their husbands to pull out before finishing in order to avoid pregnancy. Not being able to complete the act the way nature intended messes with the mind.

Isn't this an aspect of how species survive though? Realistically?
Maybe not to you or me for example. Someone could fall in love with an Asari and be just fine without copulating. It is not a slight against love for a fellow person on my part here.

We're still arguing over a joke, then. I actually can't find your central argument, what it is that you're debating.
I'd extrapolate how your arguments are used by other people for other purposes (there's a lot of irony, actually), but I don't want to start a theological firestorm.

I think your taking me the wrong way york. I am not saying that a relationship with an Asari would not be as meaningful or more so to an individual male. I think human females would have the advantage globally though.
Do you think a human who pairs with an Asari could be considered a deviant, by your line of reasoning?

Try to do it in a tactful way to not draw attention, because I am curious now. Theology was not what I was thinking.

Yeah. It is fun to talk about, and it's better than letting the thread slip to page 2+. But there are a lot of particularly dangerous implications I'm picking up from your line of reasoning. This is the kind of stuff I did in college. Philosophy, Ethics and debate.
