No embarrassment when showering between family members

Is there a mod for this? I'm from a country/family where it's really no issue to see your siblings or parents naked.
  • Bienchen has a mod called “privacytweak” that allows close friends and family to share the bathroom. It’s on this page and you have to scroll down a bit. https://deichschafblog.de/bienchen/sonstige-mods-misc-mods/
  • Yep, Privacy Tweak... that's the exact one I was going to recommend as well. Even when I scaled back my mods, it was one small one I considered essential.

    Thank you! This is exactly what I needed!
  • I had a very interesting occurrence in my game just yesterday. The eldest kid, a male Sim, was in the shower. I created it by using the showerhead and only a 3/4 'half wall to divide this small space from the bathroom sink. While he was showering away, the youngest in the family, still a Child Sim and a male, came into brush his teeth. Following him into this room was the only daughter a Teen. My eldest Teen didn't freak out at all. This surprised me. Normally, my Sims don't like to have their privacy invaded like that, even by a sibling of the same gender. Perhaps, he knew he really couldn't be seen? This was a first for me. LOL
  • I'm glad you asked and the Privacy Tweak mod was mentioned because at my house growing up, such extreme body shame was not the norm and we were Americans. I find it strange that a family member in the game can't use the bathroom for anything just because someone else is in the shower, too. For us growing up, gender or body parts didn't matter: everyone has to pee, and when you gotta go, you gotta go, and I guess my mother was pragmatic about it, because anatomy was never a taboo or secret, so it was about as interesting as noses and elbows. XD

    Thanks for sharing! ??

    I never understood why there wasn’t an option to set privacy levels in the game for each household.
