    Mass Effect and Mass Effect 2 are in the list of games that have this concept but I'm curious as to when this concept ever appears in the games.

    Chances are that whoever put those games there were probably referring to the Asari...

    Yeah, I thought about the Asari, but... I'm not sure. I mean, being a hermaphrodite means you have both sexual organs but, uh, I don't know if the Asari do...? I know they can have babies with males and females of any race, I think.

    If whoever-put-that-there meant the Asari he is dead wrong and they should be removed.

    Asari are not hermaphrodites...they are unisexual.

    The Asari present as female (actually, I'd need to go back to the codex in ME and ME2 to check but I believe that they are referred to as "female" in there). Their reproduction isn't via "sex" as we think of it since they can take genetic material from either gender of most (all?) other species to serve as the "father" set. How this collection is done is left very vague - as far as I can tell it's probably much like the permutaion of the Vulcan mind meld Spock did on McCoy to leave his soul/personality/self/whatever behind for new body implanting except they implant it and their half in the child (or something like that)...
     
    Having just played ME1 very recently I can say for sure that there are no characters in that game that one would classify as hermaphroditic.

    Alright then. Doesn't seem like anyone else can think of another example so I'll just go ahead and remove the games from this concept page.

    I have a feeling the Asari have no such organs. They just use their skin.

    It's clear, codex states that they're an all female race. .

    I came in here thinking that Mass Effect 3 would cater to hermaphrodites. I was wrong. You continue to disappoint, Bioware. When can I have freaky hermaphrodite sex in my Mass Effect games? When?
