Traits

When you add any of the LGBT sexuality/ gender traits to a Sim, they will now automatically also receive an In The Closet trait. If you include the optional homophobia file, this will prevent homophobic/ transphobic Sims from being uncomfortable around Sims that haven't come out yet.- Ally - Aromantic - Asexual - Bisexual - Demisexual - Gay - Gender Fluid - Lesbian - LGBT Activist - Non Binary - Pansexual - Transgender - Drag Queen/King - Questioning

Interactions

"Ask About Sexuality/Identity" "Ask About Pronouns" "Get Excited About Pride" "Encourage to Come Out" "Come out as..." And many more. Depending on your relationship with the other Sim and/or their traits, these interactions could have different results. Some interactions will give your Sim and/or the other Sim positive or negative buffs/moodlets! Each trait has exclusive social interactions as well, some may only appear after talking to Sims for a certain period of time. What I like about this mod is that when your Sim is coming out to another Sim, the flag will appear in a speech bubble and it’s these little details that make this mod a must have. Clearly a lot of thought went

into this mod.

Social Events

LGBT Meetup This event allows you to invite any Sims with a LGBT trait to hang out. It is a free event and there are no rewards, it is just a great way to meet Sims in the community. Coming Out Party This is a goaled event. You can come out to your friends can family in a festive environment. You can earn money as a reward upon completion. LGBT Charity Gala This is a goaled event. Host a gala to help raise money for a LGBT charity. If you get gold on this event, you will receive a new gameplay trait, LGBT Activist, which gives you two new interactions: "Talk about Protesting for LGBT Rights" and "Ask to Join

Cause" which has a chance of turning other Sims into LGBT Activists as well. LGBT Protest This is not a goaled event. You need City Living in order for this event to work. You simply invite other Sims to a lot and start a protest. You may have to click on Sims and select "ask to join protest" under friendly > political career to get the protest started. Drag Show This is a goaled event where you can win money and also the Drag Queen/King trait. The goals are mostly performance based, so it gives you the freedom to run the show how you'd like.

Lot Traits

LGBT Hot Spot The LGBT hot spot spawns LGBT Sims in your world to that lot Gay Hot Spot The gay hot spot spawn’s gay Sims in your world to that lot. Lesbian Hot Spot The lesbian hot spot spawn’s lesbian Sims in your world to that lot. Note that with all three hot spot traits, the mod does not assign traits to Sims, you have to assign LGBT, gay or lesbian traits for this to work properly.

Holiday Traditions

Pride Spirit This holiday tradition is completed by using LGBT interactions with other Sims, so you can make your own pride holiday.

Aspirations

This aspiration is for Sims who wish to advocate for LGBT rights around the community. This aspiration does require you to have City Living and Get Famous in order to complete the goals.

Optional Files

The Homophobia file is automatically included in the zip folder. If you do not want any Sims to experience homophobia or transphobia, just delete the file. These traits were created for story telling purposes only, as some people like their game to reflect reality or wish to defeat homophobia in game. The LGBT Protest Signs Override file is also optional. This will replace all protest signs with Simlish signs protesting for LGBT rights. If you do not wish to replace them all, delete this file.

Known Issues

Some people have reported an LE when lesbian Sims woohoo, PimpMySims4 has tried to fix this but it keeps coming back. It is not game breaking, so you can just ignore it until a fix can be found. For those using Wicked Whims, I found a small issue where you’ll pick a trait for your Sim like lesbian using this mod but WW assign a different sexual preference and then your two lesbian Sims can’t get it on. This is easily fixed with a WW cheat where you can assign the sexual preference. Additional Credits: In Game Icons AquamarineGem Summer & Sim by divanthesimmer
