Welcome
Hi, and welcome to The Sims Wiki, Kiwi tea ! Thanks for your edit to the Rabbit hole page.

Please leave a message on my talk page if I can help with anything about the wiki! (If you have questions about the game, please ask them in the Forum.) -- A morris (Talk) 17:38, 2010 April 24

Hey!
Thanks for all the fixes! I figure people haven't bothered putting them up because EA didn't really draw anyone into the family's stories in WA - probably a good thing because marrying a sim from outside your homeworld is a glitch-prone scenario (you get duplicates and random pregnancies). But they deserve to be recorded here, there are some interesting sims and they've been around a while now. Again, thanks for helping a newbie!

Hey. I noticed you editing around the wiki, and wow, you have a HEE-UGE amount of edits for someone who's joined the wiki so recently. I was wondering if you would want me to make a template for your talkbox, so all you would have to type is; What do you say? Bleeh (talk) 15:59, May 1, 2010 (UTC)

That would be cool. I'm relatively new to wiki-editing, used on for work but it's been a while. Been ill, so I'm sorting of on a Zen out with it all: Insane but relaxing to just sort of process all this so others have a good resource. Kiwi tea 16:03, May 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * Done, now when you want to use it just enter that and put your text in the |text = section :). Bleeh (talk) 16:07, May 1, 2010 (UTC)

Cheers! (Kiwi tea 16:10, May 1, 2010 (UTC))

Thanks!
Hey, thanks for "stepping up" and putting those trait template things at the bottom of those trait pages! I was not looking forward to filling all those in. LostInRiverview (talk)(blog) 10:47, June 19, 2010 (UTC)

Whoops! That's not what I did, I just added the genre bonuses! I have some time, so I'll do some of those now! (Kiwi tea 11:13, June 19, 2010 (UTC))


 * That's fine. I saw it in a few traits and I just assumed you had done them all. My mistake! Thanks for offering to help though. LostInRiverview (talk)(blog) 11:19, June 19, 2010 (UTC)

Image categories
Hi there, I've seen you add many images to the wiki and I love it. I would like to ask you to put the images in the appropriate categories though. I recently wrote Help:Categorizing images for this wiki, check it out. If you have any further questions about this message or this wiki, you're welcome to leave me a message on my talk page.

Hi too, XD. ---Guilherme Guerreiro (talk here) 11:46, November 14, 2010 (UTC)

I'm a random Simmer. Hope you have more things for Late Night. ^^ Moodlet thumbnails are still needed for Vampire moodlets. (eg. Energy, Thirst, Sunlight, After Drinking a Sim, After a Sim has been drank from.)

World Adventures
I Kiwi tea, I am hard working editor on here and I have seen your work around here and I wanted to know if you are going to create Al Simhara articles, because its are really neecessary and I would love to help creating its, also you have done an extremely good work around here, (that is my personal vision) when it comes to World Adventures related pages. Thanks so much for reading. --Guilherme Guerreiro (talk here) 12:48, December 12, 2010 (UTC)

Re:Questions
Yes I'm actually a boy but I'm not very confortable with my gender, I may have gender identity disorder and that's one of the many reasons why I am being followed by a psychologist, due to my "feminine" behaviour people discriminate me at school, I don't mind about being feminine but when people reject me it is horrible, I find my personality gorgeous to me but my school co-workers are so rude to me sometimes. People here on this wiki treat me as girl because it's the way I like to be treated. You may find this message immensely scary. Thanks for reading. --Guilherme Guerreiro (talk here) 11:25, December 24, 2010 (UTC)

I think you're totally right when you say that people don't should think in those terms, it is been known that men and women's brain differ in some abilities, but society aggravates these differences by discriminating both genders and impose severe rules that each gender has to follow, men and women's brains differ on average 15%, it isn't a great difference, what do you think about this? Also there are some ways to evaluate a male or a female brain. --Guilherme Guerreiro (talk here) 14:17, December 24, 2010 (UTC)


 * I don't find your messages scary at all. :D I think for a lot of people what you're going through is quite normal. I'm a "masculine" gay man married to another boy and we're both in our mid-to-late 20s. I've always been less vulnerable than my "feminine" gay and straight friends, but that doesn't mean I don't observe and understand what they go through just for not conforming to others' gender perceptions. It's extremely hard to quantify the amount that male and female brains differ, but given all I've read in the past I highly doubt it's as high as 15%. Men have more grey matter in certain areas, but that's made up for by certain similar areas in female brains. At any rate, a lot of what it means to be "masculine" or "feminine", outside of some very fixed areas like reproduction, is cultural and learned. Don't mistake differences in behaviour for differences that are hardwired into us. It hurts to be rejected, and "effeminate" men often are. It's hard for gay effeminate men, and it's even harder for straight effeminate men. If you're straight you'll be rejected by girls and people will treat you like you're gay when you're not, and if you're gay than you'll still face discrimination - sadly from other gay men. But in either case there are good people who aren't so stupid and with time you'll find them.


 * I really do strongly recommend learning more about the neuroscience on this issue. If you can get hold of Cordelia Fine's book that I mentioned you might learn a lot. One thing I will say though: I don't think you need to feel like you're a girl. You're a boy who like traditionally girlish things, and you're fighting to make it okay for boys to like those things. Because it is okay. There will be other boys in the future who will thank you for fighting for that.

 * Recommending a science book in English might not be a great idea if your English isn't too good (although it seems just fine mostly). You might be able to find out more by looking for Portuguese blogs about the neuroscientific study of gender. Be fussy, stick to good science, because there is a lot of rubbish out there about gender issues.
 * Here's an article in Portuguese about the book.
 * Cordelia Fine speech with Portuguese subtitles (It's interesting, but not related).
 * Thanks so much for this huge text!! I usually don't fit the "male category", it isn't just about likes and dislikes it is about how I feel in my body and I'm not comfortable about it, I am really scared about the idea of body hair for example, muscles and those things and this has nothing to do with my sexual orientation, which is a issue that I'm not certain of it, thanks for being understanding. Also, just be sure that I don't have any concern about homossexual people, I don't think being homossexual, bissexual or heterossexual is not a choice as some people claim, we just feel attracted to someone, and it isn't a choice that's what I think. Thanks for providing these thing with Portuguese subtitles, that's very nice of you :)--Guilherme Guerreiro (talk here) 13:48, December 25, 2010 (UTC)
