It seems odd that a function that was given to cats and dogs isn't in turn extended to horses.

  • I'm also having the same issue, I wanted a mystical they/them uni and it looks like I can't do that!

  • I agree that its odd that the pronouns feature is enabled for Cats and Dogs and not the horses. I believe it should either be disabled for both or enabled for both. It's odd that its inconsistent. 

    One question that I have is do the horses, cats and dogs have gendered language in their text descriptions? (traits, skills etc)? and if so do the custom pronouns change the cats and dogs' text? 

  • Turns out when they made the text strings for the horses, they did make them compatible with the chooseable pronouns!

    As an example, this is what a text string for one of the horses skill text's looks like 

    {0.SimFirstName}'s new Skill in Endurance will begin to help {0.SimPronounObjective} manage Fatigue better. As this Skill increases, {0.SimPronounSubjective} will also perform better at certain Community Jobs and the Endurance Race, Show Jumping, and Ultimate Horse Championship competitions.\n\nTo track Horse Skill progress, select "Open Profile" on {0.SimFirstName} in the Relationships Panel.
     
    Therefore, it is clear that the horses are designed to have this pronoun feature.
