Why can't the concept of high school be more inclusive?

Its an American game so im not surprised many elements are American even if it has an international audience. I don't expect Japanese games to include every culture either but its nice when they include aspects of mine or others. There are some nonamerican worlds, foods, dresses/clothes, festivals, mythical creatures etc Its not completely American. Not to mention any CC or mods you use. But why not share what specifically you want to see? I know I really want to see a Chinese or African inspired world personally.

This right here but also when they did try to go cultural a little it also had backlash celebrating latino/hispanic heritage month they didn't like the clothing or it only got a variety and not all culture also just recently with the snowy escape it had some backlash where a group got offended which something had to be pulled from the game. The thing is I'm all for being cultural but you got to really know what your doing aka research nowadays to not offend anyone with anything.

"American" high school is cultural.
Thus, they should avoid that, and go generic, with flexible options.

It's cultural but it's safe since they know what and how Highschool is out here they may go the safe route in my opinion they shouldn't put "American" Highschool but that's what was on the survey I just want an Education pack for teens and kids.

I also want an Education pack, but gave it quite low points in the survey because of the focus on american culture. EA telling us they want to be inclusive, so lets include some new cultures/worlds.

EA has been doing new world's since sims 2 we had what looked like China and Hawaii in Sims 3 we had Egypt and Etc and everyone was okay for the most part as far as I know but since they put culture in it like I said above they should research so they won't offend I would love new world's and culture but not if it offends people even go as far as removing something from the game.

I don't think you're quite understanding what this thread is asking for.

This isn't about asking ea to create other cultural settings. It's asking for the player to be given the controls, to be given a wide variety of options, so that individually, we can create what is relevant to us. It's about making the game more of a sandbox, and less of a rigid dollhouse.

Flexible options reduce the risk of offending. Player control over the options reduces the risk of offence even further. And in all, multiple, flexible player controlled options would vastly increase inclusivity.
