    your commentary on binary fashion/EA’s laziness is totally sane and makes tons of sense. the filters allow us to put whatever on our sims, so male and masculine sims should not be shorted. i’m a straight woman and like to make both male and female sims, and i especially want my male romantic partners to not wear the same three outfits lol.

      I agree, the whole point of the tag is to help players find what they are looking for. Some of my men dress more flamboyantly but I also want some to look sharp with well fitted clothes, while others I make might dress with more loose and casual clothes. However the overall way they make clothes fit the male frame looks terrible for many outfits , and what isn't badly fitted is just a female outfit converted to male. This doesn't even touch on how bad their hair looks.

    • @elie_l
      @elie_l Před 3 měsíci +8

      I'd add that when you want to make a male framed sim wear female clothes, you understand the crap: they just put the clothes on the frame not adapting the clothes so they fit badly making your Sims look ugly. A dress that would normally fit on a slim flat chested woman or a man in real life doesn't in the game because they are just lazy.

      I believe he is saying the 3D mesh of those shirts look like it was created for male frame bodies then just put in the female frame section instead of making 2 different meshes to better suit each body frame. That is why he said it was lazy. I wish EA provided unique dashikis or jerseys for female and male. Maybe different colors, different patterns, and so on instead of a copy paste.

    So for some context: the simmer who did this kit actually confirmed that the 1st piece of CC they made was a dashiki (the shirt next to the butterfly shirt) & it was the reason she started getting into creating CC, to fill in the gap the Sims was missing, hence the inclusion of it in the kit as it was super important to her. Also she mentioned how the basketball shorts with the numbers representing her family members birthdays & that many of these pieces are things she herself has made into CC & many also are pieces of clothing she wears IRL.
    Honestly I think that's really cool & it gives such a more personal touch to this kit.

I'm not familiar with the designers but I can tell they weren't even out of diapers (or even born yet) during the early 2000s. I find this kit mildly upsetting. lol

Also, coming from someone who's both into making CC and works in the design field there's always someone upstairs who tells you what to do, and that certain someone is almost always some desk-jockey in a pinstripe suit.

    About the point in masculine/femmenine filters - totally agree with you. With these unisex clothes, there's just no point with filters. If I want to dress my girl like tomboy I just remove fem. filter, what's the problem? No one says you cant dress male sim in girl dress if you wish, but you should make separate clothes for both. Even now there isnt many male clothing in the game, and EA still tries to impress us with the nubmer of new game items so we would SURERLY BUY every kit they realease. I dont get actually, why, as ypu said in the video, girls got all naughty stuff, and boys got more ordinary and basic clothes. Why they not care to change the earrings that will match some new boys unique jeans or top? Lazyness? Maybe. Just change the girly heart on the earring to circle, or to X, or lightning, so it would be at least more unique. Just a little bit. No need to try reaaly hard, because I'm still not buying it until you fix the game.

      ⁠@@lazyladytiredI don’t think I’ve ever seen an elder woman wearing anything like this IRL. I think that’s the point of the OP. EA packs and kits keep catering to all the Teen/YA/A life stages. Leaving elder sims in the lurch. They also do this for infants, toddlers and children life stages of not creating enough CAS content for them. Which you would think they would explore this market for cash grab sakes.

    Nah Oversized is the style for those urban items. Its supposed to have a loose cool fit. Also, the hoops (earrings) are supposed to be that big. Hoops are well loved in black/Latina communities. (bigger the better) Butterflies and that top specifically were a big thing. Google Mariah Carey butterfly top it is an iconic look. I agree there could have been more male items and a full body fit for female.

    They do the same things over and over again. The game is full of ripped/cropped jeans. Will they ever give us regular lengths and not ripped or skin tight? The game is also full of crop tops for women and I think there must be three other versions of that (cute) skirt in the game.

    I think the sims team don't realise (or just ignore) that you can't have diversity if you only represent groups that you've decided are 'the diverse ones'.
    Having a cut-off point where masculine clothes are considered 'not a part of diversity' just means that you represent less people. Nothing about making masculine clothes would be stopping them from having all the androgynous and feminine clothes they already have.

    5:56 Not male necessarily. The WNBA exists and there is a portion of the female population (in the US, at least) that wears those types of shorts. They're basically graphical board shorts. Sure it's usually guys who wear basketball shorts but there was a time where guys were the only ones wearing high heels, wigs, and carrying purses. This whole pack screams 'hood' to me, being throwbacks to my teenage years in the mid '80s to '90s ("the bigger the hoop, the bigger the....garden tool"). Many of those pieces were featured in "urban" films from decades ago. Love & Basketball (shorts), The Players Club (tight pants with the laces on the outside), Jason's Lyric and Set It Off (baggy fitted jeans), and the daishiki (6:45) featured in almost every urban film from The Last Dragon on. I don't hate it since it resonates with me more than most other kits. But I'd never put those hoops on any of my sims (refer to the earlier quote - and those hoops are BIG). On a side note, I've heard the word 'dungarees' more in this video than I have in the last 20 years combined! 🤣

Personally I’d have rathered a unique jersey for female sims that draped better and maybe had more unique colors or patterns then a copy paste.
