I also kind of agree.
They're making too big a deal out of it. It was cool and thoughtful how sims in the first game didn't give a rat's behind about gender and just loved (and fought) each other freely. It felt natural, nothing about it seemed forced. These days there's a whole parade going on about how inclusive they are, but imo, it's a step back.
It used to be normal, sims can be gay and people can be too. The way it should be. You don't need to TELL EVERYONE ABOUT IT. It shouldn't have to be some kind of special thing. It just needs to be normal, and they already had that.
The irony of it all is that with all the LGBTQ+ updates, the game isn't just letting you be gay anymore. It's telling you how to be gay. With pride flags and shirts.
