Inge:
Pescado are you saying that in Sims 3, that complex system where there were two seperate values "Attracted to male" and "Attracted to female" no longer exists?   That was weird, but interesting, as you could have a highly sexed sim who wanted anything that moved, down to one who was repelled by the idea of sex with either sex.

J. M. Pescado:
No, that still exists. It actually seems to be working slightly better than in TS2. But it is a purely binary quantity when operating in-game. Either a sim is, or is not. The actual numerical values are meaningless, only their negativity or non-negativity matter. It doesn't matter whether the value is 1, 1000, or OVER 9000, it's all the same.

LVRugger:
That's all that twallan's Kinsey scale shows - how many sims have positive values for attraction. The vast majority will be 0 or 4 due to the +2/-1 that occurs with each interaction. I have maybe 3 sims that I have had flirt with both sexes and they have scores of either 1 or 3 as they have positive values for attraction to both sexes.

I just played my own household, barely getting involved in the neighborhood, and noticed more and more gay or bisexual romance pop ups.
Well, I don't know how it happened either, but I do think that allowing autonomous same sex relationships without giving all Sims in the hood a gender preference first might be a very bad idea. Flirty or Single Sims are probably going to race to get all undecided Sims "convinced" either way...

Well, I have nothing against gay people, but a "destroyallgaysims" command would come in handy now.
You caused it one way or another, now take the consequences like a man! ;)

The (simultaneously) creepy and wonderful thing about the gay in my neighborhood has been the fact that much of the 'playing for both teams' activity you see above is elders. If someone's hetero-spouse dies in my neighborhood, the widow/widower will grab the nearest unattached YA or adult of the same sex and start in with the lovin'. I'm gonna have to build a swinger's retirement village.


Touching on this, could AM slightly reduce the amount of elder-YA romancing that goes on? In my neighborhood the same thing happens, every single or recently widowed elder is roaming around lookin' for love, and they usually hitch up with YAs who would be better used pollinating someone their own age. At the very least romancing with female elders should take a big hit since they cannot procreate.
