Recently, I have seen a lot of reverted edits (not quite an edit war) due to different opinions of the sex of some Sims. For example, the Sims Lucy Mole and Hannah Keebles. These Sims are glitched and were created early in TS2's production (or perhaps due to being created early in production). They have the appearance of females, but their sex is classified as male and they have the voice of a male.

I've seen different editors classify these Sims differently. In one case, I saw a user change the sex of the Sims to female (from male) and then be reverted to have their sex be male once again. As well, some pages simply don't have either male or female for the Sims. However, some editors will add male and be reverted.

Personally, I believe these Sims should be classified as male. SimPE classifies them as male, and their sex is male, despite having the appearance of a female. As well, I'd like to propose the addition of a possible category or something to properly classify these Sims. --Bleeh(talk!) (edits) 06:11, August 1, 2013 (UTC)

Discussion

A small discussion we had on the IRC Channel. Ѧüя◎ґ (talk) 06:22, August 1, 2013 (UTC)

I agree with that discussion. Let´s leave age and gender empty, but write a note and explanation. Note to RoseGui: Waiting until someone leaves and reverting the edit is not good way to solve the problem. Mate1234 (talk) 10:39, August 1, 2013 (UTC)

I sincerely apologize for that unfortunate comment; it expressed frustration on my part for your insistence in reverting the edits, but it wasn't aimed at your personally. --RoseGui (talk) 11:15, August 1, 2013 (UTC)

I'm kind of on the fence here. I think that the parameter should be kept empty, because, like the IRC discussion above, we'd have to be oblivious to all the bugs in SimPE. However, I also think that we should fill in the parameter, for consistency with the other Sim articles. ~ Waikikamukow (Anyone wanna chat?) 11:26, August 1, 2013 (UTC)
