I honestly thought the forums would be more open to discussion and less "everything you say offends me" than Tumblr. What a shame that this turned out to be the opposite of that.

Thank you for proving my point, however. Everyone else is entitled to have an opinion but I should just "put up and shut up." There is a really sinister tone lurking behind some of the replies to this thread. It's a mixture of ridiculing and downright disgust that I should even be given the space to broach this discussion.

Just because something doesn't effect you, does not mean that is non-existent. I sure hope that in the future, when one of you have something you want to say, no one else ridicules you for it.

I presented my points thoroughly and respectfully, and asked others to do the same; or pass by this thread. What shame that others could not extend this courtesy back. The opening post of this thread shows the disparity between the representation of male and female same-sex couples, and that is not up for debate. Gay couples are not considered the "right look" to advertise this game, and when gay Sims are included, they are done so in a monolithic and stereotypical way. I will continue to call this out for as long as it still happens.

Dont let that discourage you to voicing your opinion, there will be always a mob mentality anywhere and this forum is not an exception
