Nothing For These National Celebrations?
I waited to see if Maxis would be inclusive and add or mention National Women's History Month and or National Disability Awareness month. Both were in March. I didn't see any mention in TS4 nor any ...

I appreciate any new items or fun gameplay that celebrates any holiday, so I'm definitely not upset about anything they have done or not done, but I do agree with the OP that their inclusion policy is kind of all over the place. I think they should sit down in January and just plot out the whole year of holidays they want to do something special for. And to avoid creating animosity, they should try to treat all the holidays equally, and also be more broad in their scope. Remember that Canada is just next door and only got one maple bacon pizza in the game. Canada Day is July 1 in case anyone is wondering, just a few months away. :wink:
I think the inclusion should be fun and make people happy and excited to learn things from all over the world and from history. I didn't expect anything for women's history, but I wouldn't say that tattoos or a time-limited scenario represented that well in comparison to almost an entire kit's worth of product for other groups, but don't get me wrong, it was nice to receive those and I enjoyed them. The scenarios are not really very popular and this one is a time limited one and not everyone puts tattoos on Sims, so I was surprised they chose that to celebrate women.
I'm personally really happy that they are trying to do this. I think what I would appreciate a lot would be a new, interesting premade household with an inspiring and fun life story that is engaging and informative to play with, a new food dish, a new painting or deco object. I would prefer something small, simple and permanent like that. I love the idea of celebrating with artists, but I would choose a painting or decoration object that everyone can enjoy. Who doesn't appreciate a small decorative potted plant? I just got a little orchid in a pot yesterday from someone and it made my whole month.
