Viviana: Girl or Boy? Wha?
akatonbo:
I've heard of which-gender-is-it weirdness with the baby/toddler/child transitions before, but not in any place high-tech enough to do much investigation. (Heck, this is the only place high-tech enough to do any serious investigation of bugs not already well-examined.)
SaraMK:
I wouldn't put it past the game to change a sim's gender without the player doing anything stupid.
One time I created a family in CAS that had two identical teenage girls. They were exactly as I had created them while in the sim bin. I put them on a lot... the lot loaded and one of the girls was a boy with random Maxis hair and clothing. Nothing was different about him otherwise -- his face was just the girl's face flipped to male.
Now, in that case, there had been absolutely no chance that I had done something to cause it. There was literally just minutes between creating the family and putting it on a lot. No other lots were loaded in between, nothing else was created or changed. In fact, while the lot was loading, the picture showed the two teen girls. The picture didn't change to show the new "boy" until the next time I re-loaded the lot (which I did immediately, hoping the bug would correct itself if I left without saving).
This "boy" was severely screwed up, too. He had a girl's voice and the hair and clothing would randomly switch around -- sometimes male clothing and hair would be available, and sometimes female.

Wow... that's kind of a weird and sorta cool glitch. Maybe Maxis EA is like really pushing the "Queer Agenda" with secret, sneaky "bugs" like this. Lol. :D
Maybe your sim, s/he was trying to tell you something in a not so subtle way: "Mommy... I think I wanna be a boy..." ;)

Gee, Ste...sounds like a call for a trannie mod. [/hint]

I wouldn't, either. One of my OFB (I think--she could've been generated with the Pets install) townies has been redefining the term "gender confusion" from the moment she appeared. S/he has the hair/face/clothing of an adult female, but her voice is definitely male, and s/he's flagged as a male by SimPE. ???
There's something else glitched with her, too...every time she appears on one of my sims' business lots, her buy bar appears embedded in her neck instead of over her head.
