We defs need more masculine items. But I don't think the potential pack should have any gendered names in the title, like "man" etc. We're living in a woke generation, after all. Having the name "man" or "male" or whatever in the title name could imply that it's just for men and offend people.
These ideas aren't 'for men' they are masculine. Traditionally masculine interests and clothing/styles etc is needed in the game. It's not 'for men' though just as much as pretty pink stuff isn't 'just for women' etc. These things are just more popular with one gender or the other, but that doesn't imply that it's specifically for anyone... We had stuff like this in TS2 for example, with the car building thing and stuff. Could be cool to have more sports things too, which I think are still considered masculine today
Realistically speaking though, I don't think TS4 would ever make a gendered pack. Gendered jobs, for example, like claiming one job is for one gender and not the other, would offend a lot of people lol. We all know that it's a real thing that some occupations are more popular with men or women, but TS4 and the world is working towards a gender neutrality in things. I don't think it would be wise to separate the genders...
I guess what I'm trying to say is that, it's a slippery slope to make a gendered pack. People will get mad
But TS4 needs more male hairstyles and clothes and aesthetic stuff. I just don't know about gendering jobs... I don't know. Seems like it would be a sensitive subject
