Great kisser gives a positive moodlet of +15 for 3 hours to the kisser and the kissee. I usually have my great kissers kiss their partner in the morning before work and at night before bed. It is a useful trait for players who emphasize the happiness of their sims via moodlets without any annoying side effects.
I used to use the athletic trait a lot but now reserve it for hard core athletes or vampires (because of a vampire mod I use). Athletic sims almost never do any random activities on their own except workout if there is a TV, radio, stereo, or workout equipment on the lot.
It's the same with several other traits such as bookworm that seem to determine what the sims will do on their own because they override the other traits.
@cwaddell - If you really want a maximized and long lasting positive moodlet I recommend giving your sim a plate of Ambrosia, it will be +75 and last a whole week! It also returns your sim to the beginning of their current age, so if you want them to age it's out of the question of course.
Yes, the athletics love to exercise in front of the TV, they do it autonomously all the time. Another trait with mostly good effects is Brave, it's always satisfying to see the sims teach the nasty burgler a well deserved lesson.

I think that's only for a certain type of colorblindness that it's mostly male. I don't remember her doctor ever saying she was unique or anything like that.
@Mstybl95 - I've been reading up a bit on color vision deficency, aka CVD, and it seems that when you look at the total numbers of affected people it's mostly males:
"Who is at risk for color blindness?Men are at much higher risk for being born with color blindness than women, who seldom have the problem. An estimated one in ten males has some form of color deficiency."
"What is colour blindness?Colour (color) blindness (colour vision deficiency, or CVD) affects approximately 1 in 12 men (8%) and 1 in 200 women in the world."
By the way, Photobucket has ruined the little picture in your signature. :(

It doesn't only compensate. Women with the mix of X chromosomes, one with normal color vision and one with either protanope or deuteranope vision, effectively have 4 types of cones and can distinguish a lot more colors than people with normal color vision. In that case, having the gene is an advantage. At least that's the case with the most common forms, where the third type of cone isn't just missing.
Anyway, I think that, in the game, it would just be some gimmick.
@Turjan - I assume you mean the so called
tetrachromats, persons with extended and enhanced color vision, I didn't know about their existence until I read your post, thanks, it's always interesting to learn about something new. "Educational" as Ray Mazza calls it in his blog post.
On
this page there is a sort of slideshow with pictures of little bowls with pigment powder that show how colours look if you have 1. normal vision, 2. Deuteranopia, 3. Protanopia or 4. Tritanopia. Now I'm curious which one of these variants 2-4 is it you have? Number 2 and 3 look very similar to me, I can hardly tell them apart.
