Can we get the Technophobe lifestyle trait without cheats?

Has anyone managed to get the Technophobe lifestyle? I have no idea what do I have to do to trigger this lifestyle. My sim was living on an off-the-grid lot for weeks doing all the off-the-grid things. However, I haven't seen a message that a hidden lifestyle was in process.
Is it a bug or it's me doing something wrong?

    Woodworking for technophobe, if you're trying for technophoebe and outdoorsy, sleep in a tent.
  • I wish that woodworking wasn't counted as a indoors activity. All the sims that I wanted to focus on woodworking have been the ones in which I wanted to tell a story about a sim tied to the outdoors. Stuck on an island, living out in the woods hermit-style with rabbits for company or something like that. My techie-sims deal just fine in nice apartments in the spice district, they do not need to make their furniture from scratch.

    Woodworking for outdoors sims and being able to make a wider selection of furniture. It is a bit strange, I avoid woodworking with the sims that I would like to have it the most because of how it is tagged. Thus those who check activity for how items are used in the game will say. "Jupp, the number show that sims living outdoors in tents or small huts in the woods have little interest in woodworking".

    Big sigh.

    Yet, interestingly enough, Maxis has shown that one of the most outdoorsy Sims they have made is into woodworking. There's a woodworking bench, outside, at the Hermit's Hut in the Deep Woods. Not at all consistent in their approach on this issue!
