Asari Sex Appeal Among Andromliens

It would be hilarious to have a cutscene where the Andromedans state how ugly they find the asari and humans to be.

Imagine how desperate some of the people asking for an Andromedan LI would become.

A scene with Andromliens stating Asari are ugly would also be THE LULZ imo.

What always confused me is how Asari are seen as these galactic beauties yet humans look better than them.  It has to come down to the fact that nearly anyone is capable of screwing asari.

You my friend are hands down the coolest girl so far on this forum.

You won the tinfoil hat for today.


Thinking a bit serious about this strange question: the asari government is very rich, they were the founders of the Citadel Council (with the salarians) and they are not shy about their sexuality. They have the money, the influence and the will to do it, so it's no wonder that the "azure love" is kind of widespread on the Milky Way even between species that aren't morphologically much similar to them (like salarians, turians or krogans).

That been said i wouldn't be surprised if some Andromeda aliens don't share the same ideal of beauty.

It's not a 'Biotic Illusion' or pheromones or whatever. I think people get that whole bachloer's party thing mixed up pretty bad. Asari heads are similar to Turian (females specifically) 'head fringe' (there heads, we're not talking poofy feathers or anything). They're considered flexible by Salarian's and they look pretty human in face/body. That's all there is to it. People took it like everyone seems them as looking like a blue version of their race and... yeah no.

Or at least keep all this shit to one, single "RageUnderFire's Random Brain Droppings Spam" thread.

Hasn't much to do with "believe", I just always liked the idea... apparently I stand corrected.

From the wiki:

"Uniquely, the asari are known to be perceived as attractive to many other species. This may be because of shared physical characteristics (e.g., body shape for humans, skin color for salarians, head fringe for turians). Mordin Solus postulates that the mechanism behind the asari's cross-species attraction may be neurochemical in nature."

It's been a running joke in the series that yeah people for some reason take as fact. I think it's pretty silly honestly. As someone else posted, the wiki even has speculation on it. lol

It doesn't have to be released by sex it could just be an omni-present pheromone.

The point is, there does seem to be sufficient evidence of a surprisingly universal cross-species attraction to Asari, within the ME universe, in order for Mordin to be speculating at all. The post I was responding to seemed to be suggesting that the overheard Salarian conversation was just a jokey aside and the only basis of people thinking that when it is actually mentioned several times across the series.

The fact that there is this strange attraction, requiring a hypothesis and that Mordin's theory was chemical in nature doesn't preclude the possibility of a biotic mind-affecting influence either. Biotic mind control is, after all, the biotic bonus power you get from Morinth. An Asari whose sexual appetite is in overdrive!
