This is why I am against the lore update. Until now Darling was kept vague enough for everyone to make them their own. They could be a tomboy girl, a transmale in the process of transitioning or a nonbinary sim that encompasses both their sides equally. But soon as Maxis gives Darling a pronoun, only one of those interpretations will be correct, with the others getting relegated to mere headcanons. Same with preferred activities, colors and music styles.
This is a good point. Back when I still let all the pre-mades populate my saves, I had Darling in one save as a teen of uncertain gender or sexual preference, possibly asexual. In another save she was a female who liked other girls, though apparently shy about getting attached to anyone. In yet another, he was a trans male who liked both boys and girls. They each felt like equally valid versions in the context of each respective save. It would be a shame to make Darling's gender suddenly feel too rigidly defined too allow that kind of creative freedom for people who still play with such sims in their own games.
