More than 700 items that were previously gender-locked are now available to either male or female Sims. It’s time to be very creative with your character. Electronic Arts says that the game was developed for a diverse audience and it wants its players to be as creative as they can possible be and express themselves naturally. The aim is to allow players to create characters they can identify with or relate to through tools that give them influence over a Sims’ gender, age, ethnicity and other characteristics. We’ve also made clothing, hair, jewelry, and other visual options available to all Sims. Over 700 pieces of content previously only available to either male or female Sims, have now been made available to all Sims regardless of initial gender selection.

Player reaction has been very supportive of the developer’s actions. They salute the initiative, saying the company has updated the game for the times: Since the gender-specific options touch on a very sensitive subject, other players don’t agree with the developer’s decision to make the Sims gender neutral and acuse the company of encouraging gender confusion, suggesting it should focus on more important improvements.
