}}A '''same-sex relationship''' is a potential form of [[relationship]] in [[The Sims series|''The Sims ''series]]. Players have been able to create same-sex relationships since the [[The Sims|original game]], but the way the game has treated these relationships has changed over time. Currently, there are
== Attraction ==
Line 74:
==Pre-made (possibly) gay, lesbian or bisexual Sims==
* [[Gobias Koffi]], one of the premade Sims living in [[Sunset Valley]] is implied to be gay, as is his late father, [[Gaylord Koffi|Gaylord]]. Gobias' bio hints that he has been unable to meet the right woman because he may in fact prefer the company of his male friends. Gobias has no mother in his family tree, suggesting Gaylord may have adopted him. It's possible his mother may have died, but this would have likely been hinted at. Both of their names also offer hints as to their possible sexual orientation: Gobias appears to be named in honour of a [[Wikipedia:Tobias Funke|sexually ambiguous character]] (Tobias Funke) from TV's ''[[Wikipedia:Arrested Development (TV series)|Arrested Development]]'',
* Using [[testingcheatsenabled]], the [[InSimenator]], or [[Package editor#SimPE|SimPE]] in ''[[The Sims 2]] ''allows players to view Sims' degree of attraction to both genders, which determines how likely they are to accept or reject a romantic advance from a Sim of that gender. Players have commented that several Sims show a preference for their own gender, often despite being involved in an opposite-sex romantic storyline - this is particularly prevalent in [[Veronaville]], where most of the pre-made males have at least some romantic interest in their own gender. The most commonly cited example is that of [[Kent Capp]], who has a preference for males at the beginning of the game, despite an implied budding romance with [[Bianca Monty]] and being the subject of [[Titania Summerdream]]'s crush. A lesser known example is [[Jason Cleveland]], who also has a preference for males, despite being married to [[Marissa Cleveland]] at the start of the game.
* Similar to the instances above, a few premade Sims in ''[[The Sims 2]]'' are bisexual, having equal positive preferences for both males and females. Two examples of this are [[Circe Beaker]] and [[Titania Summerdream]], while [[Ariel Capp]] is predetermined to be bisexual when she ages up to [[teen]]. Interestingly, the only preset bisexual Sims in ''[[The Sims 2]]'' are females.
Line 90:
* At one point in ''[[The Urbz: Sims in the City]]'' for console, the player character becomes involved in a love triangle with a female Urb, [[Babbette Couture]], and a male Urb, [[Cash Monet]]. This implies that the player character is bisexual and, depending on the gender of the PC, that either Babbette or Cash is either bi- or homosexual.
* ''[[Urbz Comix]]'' feature the character [[Anna Kissed]], who explicitly states that her romantic preference is for women when rejecting the advances of [[Urangoo McBain]], and is implied to be romantically involved with [[Kiki Blunt]].
* In ''[[The Sims 4: Vampires]]'', [[Caleb Vatore]], a pre-made vampire
* In ''[[The Sims 4: Cats & Dogs]]'', [[Brant Hecking]] and [[Brent Hecking]] are the second pre-made couple in the series who are openly in a same-sex relationship. They are married to each other.
* In ''[[The Sims 4: Island Living]]'', [[Oliana Ngata]] and [[Leila Illes]] are the third pre-made couple in an openly same-sex relationship. They are married, and Oliana has a son, [[Tane Ngata|Tane]].
* In the July 2019 rebranding update for ''[[The Sims 4]]'' base game, the family bios for new pre-made [[CAS]] Sims [[Dela Ostrow]] and [[Mia Hayes]] revealed that they are girlfriends; however, they are not included in the same household and do not technically have a relationship as far as gameplay is concerned.
*In ''[[The Sims 4: Eco Lifestyle]]'', [[Evergreen Harbor]] features two pre-made lesbian couples, [[Blossom Greenburg|Blossom]] and [[Mary Greenburg]], who have an adopted son, [[Knox Greenburg]], and [[Tina Tinker|Tina]] and [[Yasemin Tinker]], who have an adopted daughter, [[Olive Tinker]].
