I've always thought that CAS lacked for the guys. Even back in TS3. I rely on packs for more options, but I honestly haven't been impressed by most of the stuff from the last few packs. I enjoy some of it, but a lot of it feels like recycled versions of what we already have. I don't care for many of the color schemes either, so most of my guys accidentally end up dressing similar. 😅
On top of more clothing variety, I agree with those asking for more beards and adding body hair. I don't use much CC in my game, but I do for those categories.
I don't have any trouble making male sims with very different styles, I think they have way better clothes than the ladies. But I would like more stuff for dudes anyway because I like them better and prefer to make dude sims 😀.
At least male Sims have actually gotten more fashionable clothes in The Sims 4... Sims 3 and Sims 2 were much worse when it came to that! As great as those games still are, they heavily lacked good looking clothes and hairstyles for male Sims...
However, I do agree... even if Sims 4 is better than past iterations, male Sims still seem to be very ignored by the developers. Every pack we get seems to come with dozens of young adult female clothes, hairstyles etc... while male Sims get like four new outfits and one new hairstyle. Even with the children, girls get more stuff than boys in every pack.
And even with the male clothes and hairstyles we get, the majority of them end up being a choice for female Sims as well. Male Sims rarely even get their own clothes and hairstyles exclusive for them.
YAS, please! I play guy Sims 90% of the time - every time a new pack comes out, our male Sims only get like ½ the CAS items that female Sims get. I really, really want some proper men's clothes, hairs and beards. And NOT boy and metro-sexual stuff, for crying out loud - I mean something properly manly
Even the CC market is woefully lacking in proper male stuff. It's so super frustrating.

I couldn't agree more! I play a lot of male sims and they could really do with more variety in CAS. I hope to see more attention paid to male sims in all future packs and not just primarily young adult female sims. More content for elders and younger sims would also be welcome.
I'd love this. I usually tend to play male sims weirdly (I'm female), so I've had to download quite a lot of cc to differentiate my sims a bit because after a while they always start to look the same. And at the risk of encouraging stereotypes, maybe they could include the "Tinkerer" trait again, with the fixer upper car - I soooooo miss those things, I used to play them in every family and there isnt really anything that compares in TS4.
I mainly play boy sims and cc saved their lives.
I had to download tons just to give them different looks. Kids are even worse off. Even when cc hunting you can find tonssssssss more for girls which is annoying.
But for non cc users, yes, they are very neglected and need more. I was thinking maybe it's because they think mostly girls play this game? But even as a girl player myself it's not like anyone has a world void of boys so...... I don't get why.
Thats something that's plagued the entire franchise in the male department and children. Really enjoyed the clothing from Uni for males. Especiallu pants selection. Wouldnt mind seeing some CAS for males in a pack that ends up being bigger than females.
I play with male sims as much as female sims, sure, I am open to more new looks. Laundry Day, some Get Together and Cats and Dogs are probably the closest to my preferences for male sims, maybe mixed with a bit of Backyard, IL and Movie Stuff. There is a chunk of items that I don't use. I would also appreciate non-ripped jeans.
There's a lot of weird clothing for the men. My unpopular op is that I like a lot of the "YA female" stuff and use that heavily, but not all of the crop tops. I rarely use those.
As I've said before, most of the stuff they release for men these days seems to be the stuff that would only appeal to the "Nu Age Male" or "The Bro's". Unfortunately for most of us, we don't like playing with either of those types of men! It would be like if most of the styles for women being released today would only be categorized as "Basic Starbucks girl" and "Mean Girl" because trust us, most of us don't play with just these two styles right here.

I would download some more CC for men and boys, but they ignored there as well It’s so hard finding good CC for them
The suits especially are hideous. They’re so baggy and non-tailored. I really hate them.

I also would love more facial hair options.
