Gay Parent Options.

«1
I am playing with a single female. She is outgoing and throws a bunch of parties. I had no intention of her being in any relationship at this point. Alas, she had other thoughts. I found her flirting with another female. They are so cute together and I went with it. My problem being later I really want her to pass her genetics off. I'm not much for cheating....so.

I really wish there was an option for artificial insemination....or surrogacy for male gay partners.

    You can either make her a Child with the genetic tool in CAS
    Or you can let her have a Woohoo with a random guy to have kids.

    Yes, you can do this in CAS with just her. You can create a twin, age it down to a child and then set it to be her child.

    Then I suggest a mod because I doubt at this point in time this is something they have time to do and or the resources to do it with everything else they have to spend that money on to fix this game.

    There's this mod. "Babies for everyone" I've not personally tried it but read the comments section for reviews.

    You can ask they move it to the Ideas Corner' where new ideas may actually be looked at, if they have the time.


    ETA: while you are moving this thread EA, I would like the L&D headstone back in the games because that way I can make my Sims pregnant by any Sim I choose (who I have summoned to the lot)...nothing like that cheat object since the TS2. It worked great for many things. I hope you consider actually giving back the cheat objects in your future games.

    Do I just edit the title of this post to ask it to be moved?

    and thank you everybody that responded with helpful suggestions.

    Does she have to marry the guy, or can it be a one night stand type of thing? Then if she marries her girlfriend and has the baby will it definitely not show they guy as being the father? Can they be married to two people at once?

    You can Try for Baby with someone you're not married to -- just have to have a high enough romance bar. (I've got a slacker baby daddy who's got about 12 or 13 kids running around town.) So the female Sim could develop a "friends with benefits" relationship, do the deed, then get pregnant and give birth; since Sims don't seem to get jealous it should be no problem. The relationship panel for the offspring will still show the guy Sim as the father, just like a birth certificate will show father's identity even if he's not in the picture.

    @tomchan0 Just thought I'd throw this idea out there: Go into Manage housholds/CaS with your sim's love interest. Use the play with genetics tool go create a brother for her. You select "Play with genetics" and set the relationship to be that lady sim's brother. Then you make him her twin brother.
    I just went and experimented with Bella Goth doing this and I can't post pics, but the likeness was definitely there.

    Then you have the twin brother be the "donor" for your try for baby. Now your sim is pregnant and the child has genetics from both families.

    I really wish there was an option for artificial insemination....or surrogacy for male gay partners.
    On TS3 Into the Future you can travel to future with your mate and make a baby at the hospital:)
    Hope that helps... at least on the previous version:)

    I think I'm going to do this. I really want the whole pregnancy experience, but this is the next best thing. Thank you.

    I did this when I played Sims 3. It was a cool option.

    I don't like cheating in the game as well but in this case... I'd turn one of them into a man, go for a baby and then change the male back into a female. If you can't beat them join them :#

    You could study the genetics, adopt a child, and perhaps edit it to look related to her? :\ If you used default options to make the Sim it might not be that hard.

    I think if you put in "testingcheats on" and then "cas.fulleditmode", you can temporarily make her partner a man. Then have them try for baby, and once your sim gets pregnant, you can turn her partner back into a woman.

    I loved the "pregnancy for everyone" mod in TS2. I liked for Pascal Curious and Nervous Subject to be able to have biological children together; love those genes! There was also a way to do it using the Tombstone of Life and Death, which was an in-game cheat thing. I understand that not everyone feels comfortable with mods, but in this case it's the only option I can think of; I'm not aware of any in-game way to do it.

    So, I came to this late, I usually do. I'm not much on commenting but this one is near and dear to me. I agree that EA has a lot of issues surrounding their sims games now. They don't seem to get the whole picture and that the LGBT community does not rely on adoption for their children any longer. Lesbians opt for IVF or inseminations, Guys opt for sarrogacy, some do still opt to adopt, giving an unwanted or orphaned child a home. Any of these is good and if you don't want to use cheats you will have to go with either her woo hooing with some guy, or adoption. Even changing her partner to male is cheating. Good luck with it though and for the record I use babies for everyone because I think it is really cute to watch them have their own children too.

    Have you tried using Manage Worlds?
