I don't understand what you mean by transgender. Sorry if this is offensive but 1)I haven't played The Sims 4 so I don't understand the references to that and...
2)When you say transgender do you mean making Sims with the characteristics of both sexes? If so isn't that intersex and not transgender which are not the same thing?
I guess my question is since you can already change the sex of Sims and same sex couples can have biological babies with their DNA even though this is physically impossible in the real world isn't that already transgender?
I'm speaking of the scientific explanation of transgenderism not the way the term is used colloquially. A sim which is neither male nor female biologically from creation would be intersex. If you give it cosmetic surgery but it's still biologically it's original sex that's transgenderism. So is that what is being requested?
Would that be an operation performed as part of the medical story? Because I don't think there are life stories about self discovery so I guess it would have to be an additional category.
