you're trying to argue how someone looks vs their actual age. if that's the case, half of the girls I went to hs with were "adults". I just pointed out that Sims, factually, have determinable ages using basic math and the information the game gives you. that's it

Your math isn't the law and sims 4 has teens that are depicted as adults.  That is it.  They look like adults.  It's not depictions of minors.  Real life though there is an age like legally based on reality.  I am talking about depictions of adult looking sims.  They do not have a legal AGE like a number.  They are depicted as adults.  Teens are also 18-19 and can be in school at age 19,  I was 18 when I was a senior and that was without being held back.  I do not consider teens to be under 18 visually or in my head.  I usually age them up to YA because I hate them running off to school.  I doubt I will even get the new pack because I don't really care about school.  It is doubtful that legally they would waste time and money going after adult looking sims because that is not depicting minors at all.

This is why the law won't care. I've been reading the law surrounding this stuff from a view places acros the world. Prettymuch all of them state a minor has to be clearly depicted, wich teen sims in sims 4 just are not. Like you said, they look like adults, so how are you going to see the difference between YA and teen? You can't unless you look at their age on their like bio page. But even then who is to say they are not 18 (wich is still teen)?

What I'm trying to say, the whole argument about law. Is kinda pointless simply because of the looks. And yes, you could calculate their age by the lifestate days, but then you get people like me, who have aging of. How are you going to determine it then?

i literally broke down the math. your feelings can't dispute that lol they are literally given ages because we have a defined, given range and a set amount of days between two stages of life. we can do quick math to see what the ages are and can even calculate the ages of each other Stage. if you have a teen fetish, that's "fine," but the numbers are the numbers. I only commented because OP said something that is factually incorrect given readily available information 

Ah yes, because normal, real-life humans age up a range every month.

Look, the Sims 4 aging system is downright nonsensical. babies are born and turn into toddlers (default "normal" lifespan mind you) like, one week later. Three weeks later they're kids, another three weeks they're teens, three more weeks they're YA, three more and they're adults, another three and they're elders.

Do you understand how bullshit this is? There is little to no consistency because the age ranges themselves are so vast.

You can argue that all you want (and only you can say what your head canon is), but I don't think that will make much traction with EA, Patreon etc. EA has just tightened their mod policy, likely because of outside pressure. In that regard, what you and I might feel about the teenagers in TS4 is largely irrelevant.

In US it is indeed, and hence we have the situation we now have. This pack, having drawn attention to the teen life stage, have apparently lead to the changes we're now discussing. As you say, it's the law of the land in the US.

Indeed it is not as it does not involve a pre-pubescent child, which is the definition of pedophilia.  In some places an 18yo having sex with a 17yo may be grounds for statutory rape, but the majority of US states have age of consent as 16.

It's not nonsensical. I broke down the math on a post on page 992

 

"

you can technically assign age for teen sims because "teenage" years have a defined beginning and end and the game uses a day system to age them. 13-19 is 7 years inclusive. That's probably why the durations of the Teen Stage per "Lifespan" are multiples of 7

Short Lifespan is 7 days, meaning each day is a year. Your sim would need to be set to Day 6 or 7 for it to not be weird

 

Normal Lifespan is 14 days, meaning every 2 days is a year.  Days 12-14 are acceptable

 

Long Lifespan is 56 days, meaning every 8 days is a year. Days 48-56 are acceptable

 

"

 

You can then use that relationship for interpolations and deduce the actual ages of all of the other groups. Babies are babies for:

Short Lifespan:

 

1.5 days

 

Normal Lifespan:

 

3 days

 

Long Lifespan: 

 

12 days

 

Notice a trend? Multipliers of 1, 2 and 4, the same for teens. Babies would be 1.5 years old before becoming Toddlers in each life lifespan relative to how many days they're that Stage. This aligns with irl.  

[merkle]

Here's a new one.  A Sim is refusing sex with the notification that "The current situation (the Sims) are in doesn't allow to initiate sex."  They're in the gym or his home lot.  Other Sims aren't refusing - only this one.  I checked gender preference and that's not the issue.  They're both adults.  What's up with this?

 

Update:  I figured it out.  It has to do with the new gender preference (that you access in CAS).  This poor confused woman was attracted to men but wanted to have sex with women.  You can ask Sims about their preferences, but there's nowhere I've found that you can then find them short of CAS.

Counter point: 13 is not "teen" it is pre-teen, arguably still "child" because of standard behaviors for people in that age range.
more specific: You talk about American laws, so, there in, 18 and 19 belong in the "Young Adult" category due to 18 being the accepted vague "adult" age in most US staes. This then throws your math wildly off.
Do you understand this circular logic?

You can find a dog or human hard penis that works for werewolves and is assignable via WW body selector (you don't need to install all the extra stuff in the zip, just the hard penis package):

If you use SimpleGens for your humans and would like to make it compatible to also work with werewolf as hard penis then you can find a rough guide here:

For me the SimpleGens option has been the best for my taste as I use for my humans even before werewolf pack came out, but each their own

You are an angel, thank you very much!

Not true. The age of consent varies from state to state in the USA. Generally from 16 to 18. Plus many states have Romeo and Juliet laws. In Delaware where the age of consent is 18, 16- and 17-year-old can legally engage in sex with older partners as long as that person is under 30 years old.
Also pedophilia is defined as an adult having sexual relations with a prepubescent child. A 17-year-old and an 18-year-old engaging in sexual relations is not pedophilia.

it is tho; TEEN is in the title. How can something be pre-TEEN if it's literally in the teens? You're trying to call out "circular" logic with things that are objectively false. 

The Sims 4 flavor text for when you become a Young Adult specifies that Life Stage is 20+, so no, 18 and 19 are not considered Young Adult age by the game

I believe the person was talking about the argument of the letter of the law versus the spirit of the law. Add to that, a *LOT* of adults and regular citizens don't know about Romeo and Juliet laws.
So, *on paper* a 17 year old and 18 year old having sex is rape and a form of pedophilia (I know "pedophilia" isn't the right word, I just forget the philia that it actually is)

Do.... do you understand what PRE-TEEN (wow, I can capitalize letters for emphasis too!) means?
Do you know what "PRE" means?
It means "previous to; before."

Hi, Usually am a lurker on this site but I decided to step out of the shadows to voice my opinion on the recent change to WW, which I find very baffling because I thought Sims was a life simulation game? (Like LGR on YT I don't really mess with the occult stuff) I understand that a lot of people get uncomfortable with teens doing weird stuff and that's very valid, Especially when it's an adult and Teen relationship. If you don't want want that stuff that's fine, the part that baffles me is why remove the functionality entirely? Turbo understands that teenagers have sex right? Shocking I know, but it happens because not too long ago I was one. And everyone who experiences sexual desires knows what those hormones are like at that age.

 

I digress and my point I'm trying to make here is even if the teen sex stuff makes people uncomfortable which is fine I would like to reiterate you can like and dislike stuff, what is not fine is removing it entirely and pretend that teens are all pure little angels and that this stuff just doesn't happen because that's just being really unrealistic and it ruins the immersion of having teen couples in the game when they cannot be intimate with each other anymore.

TL;DR This change in the update doesn't make any sense so in my humble opinion it deserves an L

I think the issue is it wasn't just teens but toddlers and children being animated also.

Before you go in Cas , save your game, so the game won't reverse to the last time you saved it. At least that works for me. 

Unfortunately the mod will break that save and you can't load it. It will always go to the other save. 

 

Take this as an experiment. Add a sim to your family, enter cas and then go back to the game. You will find that sim gone from the family. Any changes done prior is also gone.

That is what I found. I can't use the mod until this gets fixed.

 

This is a MAJOR bug that breaks saves.

umm, why isnt anyone understanding this game and mods are not real?!... Every walking pixel is 300 years old and 3 hours old at the same time. Its not a depiction of life at all. People thinking this shit reflects reality needs to unplug from everything. Funny how people are easily manipulated by criminals in suits who have well overstayed their welcome in politics and make the weak bend to their disgusting rule of law which they dont live by. Im glad i'll never be that weak. I live and speak FREELY, i hope it offends my enemies harshly. Left woke triggers are their own responsibility, it isnt mine or the worlds obligation to tip toe around their little feelings.  Easy way to solve this mods problem ='s   just quit playing it as in anything they taint. People think SIMs age is real, lmfao. 

That's right. Yes! mod this is an illusion game. Freely. Anime series present a distorted image of a forbidden law. Perverts are banned by political law, which is similar to the policy of forbidden porn and sex. Terror against politics, after that life is perverse. freedom perverse life.

 

 

This is similar to (politics forbidden pervert) and (pervert terror against the plitoka) English subtitles, check it out.

Ok so now it sees something else is going on. So, I just placed back WW. I only did the core files this time, no other extras or animations. I then saved, added a cat to the family in cas, returned to the game, and the new cat was there. I tested again by saving, going to the main menu and starting the save again. Same saving with cat. I then added a townie to the family, saved, went to CAS, returned to the game and the townie was there in the family. I even tried removing the cat to see what version of the save it is. So far everything is now saving.

 

I don't know why it's working now. Maybe an animation or some extra file that was for WW is breaking it. I haven't noticed just how much I missed and needed the debug shift menus that only WW offers. I sort of wish those debug menus were separate mod.
