Tay Bayless
I have just got to know. What is so wrong with Tay Bayless' looks that has simmers on multi-forums negatively talking about him? I have 'Ambitions' but I am not developing anyone in the majority of those careers yet, so I have never seen him.
I have seen his little boy wiki picture and he seems cute in a stereotypical closed-minded country bumpkin sort of way (that comment was directed at his designer). I cannot imagine his adult version becoming so hideously different to warrant the amount of ughs and yucks I have read.
So please, will someone enlighten me as to what it is about the Bayless child that puts a bad taste in so many Simmer's mouths. Thanks.

Tay looks okay as a child, if not a little sad.
I won't make any comments on what I saw when I aged him up but it probably answers your question

In my current game in Twinbrook, he got also hit with "socially awkward" or something like that. In the sim world, that's the more important issue.

@Turjan - I would expect no less than that trait as it feeds the stereotype and ensures simulated life will be harder for him.
@Pary - I don't see 'unfortunate' as much as I see 'misunderstood'.
@PalmArrow - I didn't know anything about this Sim either except the reaction to him was mostly the same across three major Sim forums where his name has come up (Here, MTS and NRaas, as well as some lesser known sites where Sims are discussed).
I see absolutely nothing wrong with this Sim!
My first impression upon looking at his face is he wears the marks of a Sim who will walk through his life persecuted by others because of a defining physical feature. His overall 'feel' (the impression I get of the possible life he may lead) is he seems as one who understands he must wear mental armor against those who will treat him and see him only for what he looks like and not who he truly is. This is represented by the expression he wears which is accentuated by him having tiny down-turned eyes and a down-turned corners of his mouth representing a slight frown.
Tay has no reason to be sad and should wear his ears with pride! In our world there is scientific proof of large ears being linked to higher intelligence. In The United States, where I am located, if you look at any of the Military strategist, News personnel who have a real opinion and do not feed media fodder or, our last president (before this one) you will notice a specific physical feature which they have in common. Large ears.
Now that I have seen him, when I install 'Ambitions', I will seek out this child to befriend him and make certain he has everything he needs to overcome those who would mistreat him because of his looks. If he meshes with any of the Sims I place in the world, I would be proud to have him (unaltered) as a part of my family tree. And, those ears shall become a signature of excellence his descendants will be proud to wear.
Sims will not mistreat him because of his looks. Only simmers perceive beauty or ugliness in sims.

Mikezumi - Nah, she really wasn't feeling him so it was best that I removed her. For some strange reason, I kept hearing Grant Rodiek (Sims 3 producer) in my head when he said 'Sims can SEE each other' and Simmer, FordGT90Concept when he said 'Sims are "aware" of their surroundings including other Sims.' Which lead me to the path of 'What if its his 'look' that's holding him back. So, I decided to give him a make over, nothing drastic just a hair cut and more groomed goatee plus, I sent him to the gym for a bit of strength training. My Goodness did that do the trick! The single women aren't running away anymore. In fact, we have a new problem 1). The teen girls are looking in his direction and 2). The married women are demanding 'hangout' time with him (their hubbies aren't liking that )! Still, haven't found that special Sim for him, but at least now the 'searching through options is a lot easier!

I should probably check whether there's some trait incompatibility between my founder and Tay, because I know for sure that every single autonomous conversation they had went south, even when Tay was a teen.

With my other Sim, it wasn't until I cleaned him up (so to speak) did other Sims begin to find him attractive and I didn't change anything about him other than his hair and goatee, his face is exactly the same. Now-a-days when I play his household, he doesn't visit the gym regularly and the female response is just as strong as ever towards him. If slider position plays a factor, then he should have had the same result as before because I didn't alter him.
The reason why I am rather sure that hair doesn't play any role is that the makers of the game expected lots of different hairstyles from many sources. There's absolutely no way to account for those.
And who knows, maybe money makes "beautiful", too.
