Sims gay
Lately, I’ve been really enamoured by The Sims 4. It’s far from existence as complete as The Sims 2 and even The Sims 3, but there’s still a lot to love about it – especially with the modding community as active as it is. One thing that I didn’t even realize is that the series, but especially The Sims 4, has LGBTQIA Sims that you can meet and interact with as you move around town!
I, for one, thought that the Sims you met throughout town were only attracted to the opposite sex. So, you can envision my surprise when I first met Brant and Brent Hecking and saw them Woohoo in a bush. At first I thought it was mods because I had indeed added an Attraction meter mod, but nope. Brant and Brent are Hecking gay! That’s awesome!
So down the rabbit hole I went, researching everything I needed to know about the LGBTQIA characters that I could find in The Sims 4. And I’ll be honest, I was shocked at just how many I establish.
Brant and Brent Hecking
While I could have included these two lovebirds separately, who am I to break up this loving – and not to mention adorable – couple?
Brant and Brent were the first male homosexual coup
The signs that I would end up gay acquire always been obvious – and nowhere was it more clear than when I was playing The Sims 2.
Everyone who has played The Sims has one version that they grew up with and The Sims 2 was mine. I was so excited to bring dwelling my second-hand version from CeX, put it into the CD drive of the computer, and perform with the digital dollhouses.
There was a lot I didn’t really understand about the game when I first started playing: from the cowplants and the Bella Goth mystery, to what the adults really did when they ‘Woohooed’.
And why I so often made the girls plunge in love with other girls.
The Sims 2, the only version I played until around 2011, originally came out in 2004. This was barely a year after Section 28 of the Local Government Act 1988, which had banned local authorities and schools from ‘promoting homosexuality’, was repealed.
In 2004, queer couples were finally allowed to adopt and own a recognised civil partnership. The Sims 2 allowed the exact same thing.
But while equal marriage still wasn’t quite there, both in-game and in actual life, it was free in The Sims 2, and
Isn't there some mod "Everyone is BI" that would make it like it used to be?
If not I guess I will deepen myself in notion that partners are overrated and it's better to just adopt children.

LGBTQ Characters in The Sims
Some pre-made characters in The Sims series are gay, lesbian, or bisexual person, although those orientations are rarely implied beyond the mechanics of their gender preference and are largely up to players to interpret as they will.
In The Sims 2, Circe Beaker, Ariel Capp, and Titania Summerdream have the same level of attraction for males and females, so their characters commence out with bisexual preferences. Other characters with double attraction preferences are Kent Capp who has a slight preference for males (still neutral for females) and Jason Cleveland (in The Sims 2: Apartment Life) who is married to Marissa Cleveland but also has a slight choice for males with neutral preference for females. Additionally, Nervous Subject has a slight disaste for females, so this could be interpreted as having lgbtq+ preferences initially.
In The Sims 2: University Life, Mitch Indie and Max Flexor (both playable characters), are college roommates whose bios show they are ready to discover new things about their friendship now that they are living together.
In The Urbz: Sims in the City, Kiki Direct is intertextually implied to be a lesbian, as the
