For a very long time it seemed like TS4 would only generate average (and some ugly) townies in my game without any makeup, but a TON of accessories and weird fashion choices, but after installing Island Living something happened.
Here are some of my beautiful townies:
Elisabeth
Besides being Malcolm Landgraab's lab partner, which might explain why she's an alien in disguise, she's really beautiful. My jaw dropped when Malcolm had his first day at work and this beauty showed up.
Marie
Baako is like.. daaang girl. I actually ran into this scandinavian beauty (she looks swedish/norwegian to me) in San Myshuno. She was the first townie I noticed with decent makeup.
I also like these two a lot, but I don't remember their names.

Me neither. I don't know what kind of magic this is!
I think he will be the next donor in my Vlad 100 baby challenge.

Breed Out The Weird *COMPLETE*
Any of them could be considered good looking or most attractive.
@Peppermix Awesome look from Baako there The girl totally look scandinavian too, I knew someone who looks almost exactly like her

Same. What I hate the most is that so many of them don't show up at manage households, so that I can't even delete them
That's why I can't play vanilla anymore... MCCC let's you unhide and delete the hidden ones.
There are still a lot of less attractive ones wondering around, picking between the good from the bad isn't easy because if you leave it enough with MCCC and you have enough homeless around, a population explosion happens so you go from a few dozen to hundreds quickly on normal lifespan settings from TS4 options. So finding individuals between families is difficult.
My townies all have Asian features with black hair and brown eyes. There is absolutely no diversity with the townies in my game!

I've noticed the same. Most of my Townies have vaguely Asian names and features.
I do agree that it’🐸🐸🐸🐸 problem if only Asian townie are generating in your game (just as much as if only Caucasian looking sims were generating). But just because all your townies look Asian doesn’t mean none of them are attractive. I know you didn’t say none of them were attractive or that they were unattractive because if their ethnicity, but the implication was there given the context of the thread’s title.
> I had to make an account so that I could say something here. Some of the comments on this thread have made me feel very uncomfortable. I know that people probably didn’t mean to imply that Asian people are unattractive but, well, saying things like “all my townies have Asian features” in response to a request to post your most beautiful townies does make it sound as though you are associating Asian looks with level of attractiveness (and not in a good way), otherwise the comment would be irrelevant to the subject of the thread. That probably wasn’t the intent behind the comments as I’ve said, but it’s certainly the way it came across to me.

Cant edit but that last paragraph should begin “I do agree that it’s a problem...”
No one is saying that Asian people are unattractive, only that every Sim looks like an Asian. Gosh, so many bhurt people these days...
Some of my creations in the gallery use CC so remember to enable them in the gallery's options to see them all.
I'd like to add an observation, though. There are a lot of asian eyes for men (like 2/3 or so?) which could also explain why so many generated townies look asian. Nothing wrong with asian per se, but it creates an unbalance.
A smile is the prettiest thing you can wear
Time enjoyed is never time wasted
I can of course understand your concern. Thing is, some of the most attractive townies I've had, were asian looking. Even a few of my absolute fav townies. I believe every sim can be attractive, some need more "work" than others, though (like removing the abomination that is the pear shaped body). It might be a bit narrow-minded of me, but in my game I want sims to look like what they are. If they are asian, I want them to look asian. I don't like when the name and look don't match, so I'll change either to suit the sim.
The "all my townies have Asian features" is because so MANY are generated, it "drowns out" any other types of sims. I've not noticed this that much since IL was released (since I've only played in Sulani), but now I have islander sims all over the place instead! And they are attractive too! Its the same if you start a save in Strangerville, to play through the story. Those types of sims will be more likely to generate. It all depends where you start playing or where your sim is located most of the time.
There are mods that reduces the generation, and to reduce/stop CL/IL names. I use the last one to get less of those names, and I have to say...I've never seen most of these names and it makes the game more interesting. Its refreshing to not have 10 households named Sakemoto anymore. More diversity.

I just don't think men with really narrow shoulders and really wide hips are very attractive. Not outright ugly really, though. Its not a manly shape (personal opinion, of course) But, pair it up with every accessory slot filled, mismatched clothes, santa beard and a bad hair cut....? I don't want to see them in my game, so I change their body type and everything else to match better.
After a bit of change, I've actually found some really good looking sims. Don't even need to change their faces, under that beard they look good. I don't want my saves to be filled with supermodels, but I want every sim to look their best.

Probably because in a man that shape isn’t one that you see very often, especially with the super wide hips. That’s the biggest thing for me. It can be so exaggerated in the game that it looks almost alien.
Other than that it probably boils down to societal ideals of traditional masculinity that have been ingrained in us over a long period of time. It’s hard to break free of these standards.
I don’t have as much of an issue with pear-shaped female sims.
yeah.. he's a male, and a mermaid... instant save into my library, too.
OMG the mermaid form.. I just found my new favourite sim!!!
Just read this, nope... What I meant was that they are all the same. If they were all with Caucasian features I would have said Caucasian. You people read too much into things, really.
