Sim without gender

TS3 was released in 2009. Not that long ago really but long ago enough but 'non gender assignment' became a big thing like it is, er, these days...

So yes the baby/ toddler should have a gender :no_mouth:

I never see the actual pig tails on males for some reason, but I would do the same as others and as I do when a business executive shows for a formal function wearing a color mismatched superhero cape, snorkel mask, and bunny slippers and just replace the nonsense on sims as I notice them.

I just want to say that Dresser works great for this too. Rather than having to go into CAS and edit a sims clothes myself, I can use Dresser to reroll their current outfit or hair and 90% of the time it comes back with an acceptable ensemble.

Editing a sim in CAS takes me down a dark rabbit hole where I end up spending an hour tweaking a bland townie to be just right, instead of actually playing my own sims. LOL

I suffer the ponytail curse a lot but it's not in every save. Some saves I see nothing but ponytails on my males when they age up and in tags around town after birthdays, in others it happens rarely if at all.

Slight correction, if I may @Mikezumi. It's not ponytails many of us are not necessarily happy to see on males, it's pigtails. Frankly, in many cases it just doesn't suit our sense of style. Besides not really having anything to do with gender identity, ponytails on males with long hair are very common. I've worn one for decades and will continue to do so until this game (or its players) cause what's left of it to fall out. :)

@igazor Oops I meant pigtails but I hadn't started on morning coffee yet and I simply don't function until I do :D
My son doesn't wear a ponytail but probably should because his hair is very long! Nothing wrong with men with long hair, especially since it was the norm when I was growing up :D

Speaking of everyone's favorite glitch... I saw a child sim (I believe they were female, judging by the clothes) sporting an adult version of the pigtails. Didn't work well. https://i.imgur.com/1Eo6Vmp.jpg

Looks like quite a hair-raising experience to me. (yeah I know, I know, but someone had to say it...) :p

@Breazona I've seen that in my game :# Thankfully, it's very rare given how many kids have been born in my saves.

@Mikezumi Opposite problem here! My family tree was so big in that save that sims were marrying their cousins because of how few townies they had that weren't related to them :confounded: After a while I figured out that I could limit how many kids sims could have through story progression so that problem was fixed in later saves, but for a while it was a bit gross in my saves!

I was under the impression that floating hair is a sign of a bit of bad CC in the game.
