Thanks everyone for reading my post and took the time to consider my suggestion or support it I understand why everyone would think that periods/ menopause/ birth control is too much for a teen game but if you can wear lingerie woohoo in odd places do sexy poses kiss flirt have an affair cheating killing your sims in different ways then I don’t see why they wouldn’t allow what I just explained it’s not inappropriate it’s not sexual there’s no nudity it’s depicting real and real life situations people go through on a daily basis and no it’s not gonna hinder the teen rating when this all what teens are learning at the moment or have already known and this shouldn’t be taboo or frownd apon cause we need more of this representation especially in a sandbox game like the sims where playability is unlimited in the game so periods birth control fertility menopause or not gross they are not weird or unwelcome there part of female anatomy and good day to everyone who read or supported it means a lot

I'm not sure how much realism you expect from the game. If they add periods they're likely to be just moodlets and nothing more, like how sims get a stomach bug. There is birth control already included in the game because the sims have the option to woohoo or woohoo for baby. Same with the ob/gyn, he's there in game. If you want to see your female sims in that contraption for other reasons than pregnancy, they could probably add that, but seriously don't expect something less silly than that. Just look at the ailments coming with the new EP, Enchanted by Nature. As for menopause, it's probably going to work like the werewolf rage. 😁

Some seriously wild takes. My bad for thinking periods were more normalized T.T Sims do things like woohoo and take angry poops, it's bananas that anyone would think periods are less appropriate then that. Apparently some people are really out there viewing periods as dirty or sexual, or shameful and something to hide

It's really just about the teen rating.
Periods are Beautiful! ...right! 🥰
Dang.
You shouldn't be ashamed of menstruation, something that's not acceptable in a teen rated game that's played by people of all ages.
Older kids and teens can get all the info they need about menstruation.
It's really not needed in a sims game since modders have filled the gap.

It's not inappropriate though, that's my point. It's a normal bodily function and no one in society needs to be shielded from the fact of it, not even children. Which is a moot point anyway since it's rated for teens, who again, menstruate themselves.
