Brave move with the new Muslim content. (In a good way)

During which, in most of Europe, women were expected to cover their hair. Fancy that. And yet, somehow not an issue for people.

I don't know if you are implying that directly to me, but I just simply like the style of clothes, and that's why I would like to see these kinds of clothes in a pack. Do you really need to throw fuel on the fire with the comment you just made? It's really not necessary, especially given all the threads that have popped up over the last few days in regards to the recently released content. I am fine with EA bringing in religious or cultural related content so people can represent themselves, but I would like to see a variety of religious and cultural related content so that others can represent themselves as well. Who knows, maybe they have plans for that, and that would be cool. Again though, I have always loved the medieval and renaissance era style of clothing, and my post has nothing to do with what your comment is trying to imply.

So since they are adding "cultural things now" when are they going to add the American Indian Culture items or do they not count?

Sioux, or Apache? Pueblo, or Iroquois? Tinglit or Cherokee? Osage or Ojibwa? Navajo or Inuit? There are thousands of tribes, in hundreds of linguistic or cultural groups, and all quite different from each other. I'd love some Pacific Northwestern native stuff - particularly their decorative motifs. It's a style I like. But I honestly know far too little, personally, of the history or culture to know whether I'd be using it respectfully or not - and that is something Maxis actually works hard on, and why inclusiveness expands gradually.

Iroquois also has six tribes within it and mostly only the Mohawk are represented in movies sadly. About the Iroquois: https://www.ducksters.com/history/native_american_iroquois.php

My ancestry comes from the Onondaga tribe. I actually got to build a longhouse which was neat, but yes I wouldn't mind Native American content, but the clothing varies with all the tribes and the homes vary too.

And stop putting outfits on my sims that I didn't have on them. Respect my wishes if you know how to do that.

Still waiting for that but basically given up hope on creating anything to honor my Tiwa (Pueblo) and other Native American ancestors. That side is always forgotten. It would be cool to build an Adobe house accurately with Southwestern style furniture, have Hopi kachina dolls or maybe have something to do with other and more well known tribes at least. I understand that they can't add everything as there are so many; but don't forget us in our own country at least.

I also applaud their decision to include hijabs etc in the game. No one batted an eye when head wraps were included or when Sims are skimpily clad or otherwise!. Just one piece of cloth on the head causes such a furore. Just because they assume it is a " symbol of oppression ". I believe otherwise .
It's not as if prayer mats or beads( tasbeeh) were included. It is just like a regular headscarf. No big deal.?

I just wish they had added kids hijabs too. Feels like something is missing in my family, and it ruins my pure/impure challenge.

I have a friend that is Muslim and she talked like children aren’t required to wear them till a certain age ( closer to teen age ) I believe.

As far as fashion I like the look of the hijab as unpopular as it is in this thread. I like Sims having options to wear head coverings like the Caribbean patch had too. So yes considering Sims have had Victorian content and Medieval content in the past and present I don't mind the hijab. Pretty sure that Get Famous came with quite a bit of Medieval content. I wouldn't mind something new to the Sims 4 like Vikings or Australian or South American. Some head coverings from India would be nice too. At this rate we could have a headwear from around the world Stuff Pack because I know numbers wise headwear, glasses, jewelry, and makeup have a far lower ratio than clothing options. I would love Sims to have those colorful British hats too that I see with the royal weddings.

I read some posts with people wanting different cultural related items, so I posted items that I would like to see, and you completely turned it into something negative, as if you are trying to go out of your way just to try to create more arguments. If medieval and renaissance era style clothing upsets you, then you are clearly too stressed and should probably take a break from the forum for a while to cool down a bit. Again, I like the style of clothing and my post about wanting to see these items in a pack has nothing to do with your remarks.

Actually they aren't wrong. About medieval fashion: https://www.bustle.com/p/7-absurd-medieval-fashion-rules-that-you-wont-believe-women-actually-had-to-follow-53750 So the hijab really isn't the first time Gurus have allowed religious fashion into the franchise especially with regards to women. I mean there was an entire Sims game called the Sims Medieval and Simmers were fine with that.

I never said anyone was right or wrong. I said that I am interested in the style of clothing, and that's all that my post stated (referring back to my original post). I am not interested in all of this religion culture drama that has been popping up as of recently. As I have already said my opinion on it a couple of times now. I am totally fine with EA bringing in religious or cultural related content, and if they are bringing it in that I would like to see a variety of it so that everyone can represent themselves. Again, going back to my original post. It has nothing to with religion or culture, I just like the style of the clothes, I always have, and I would personally like to see it in the game. As I have seen others here share what they would like to see, I wanted to share what I would like to see as well. That's all there is to it.

And that's awesome. I think bringing in a variety of different clothing from various cultures and various religions would open up a window for others to get into the Sims, but I would like to see more so that more people have the opportunity to represent themselves. I like dressing my sims up based on what I like, and that's why I would like to see a pack with medieval and renaissance like clothing. In matter of fact, I am paying a subscription right now to creators who create cosplay items for TS4. They offer a lot of fantasy/medievalish clothing, a lot of good stuff. But yeah, I think the inclusion of various clothing from different cultures is cool.

That would be neat. I really like Steampunk which is like industrial and Victorian put together. It has really neat hats and goggles with it too. I just realized Get Together was the pack with more of the medieval theme so oops. Get Famous had pirate and Victorian. I remember in junior high liking learning medieval times and wrote a paper being a serf. Actually a Farm Gamepack could open up more Medieval options especially for the farmers and imagine how cute their markets would be given what we saw with Realms of Magic market.

I also like a bit of the Steam myself. FF6 implemented it quite well. Get Together is such an awesome expansion, Windenburg is my favorite city because of the building style. I play really slowly due to the way my Sim story goes, so I haven't gotten through a lot of the content despite playing since the release and owning everything. I've been jumping around in bits here and there lol.

@duhboy2u2 @casi @Themrsg4422 You can easily disable any CAS items from spawning randomly with The Sims 4 Studio app. There's probably a tut in the creative corner or you can ask me on my page. Let's just say the Moschino SP items and those horrific free sweaters got that treatment straight away in my game. :D

That's a great idea. I've used Sims 4 Studio to disable for random on custom content, but sadly, it never occurred to me to just disable all the hats for random as well. That makes my day! Now I will probably use the Hijab and some of the other hats since I'll be able to choose who wears what! Thanks for pointing this out. It wouldn't have hit me that I could do the same with EA items that I can with cc ones. :/

I would use Indian Stuff

The problem using Indian Stuff would they would think I was talking about India and I wanted to be sure they understood I was referencing American Indians and not India.
