Hi. I hope this was not mentioned already. I've seen some posts about school popups but not this particular one.

 

  • Which pronouns are you using?
    • They/them
  • Where are they not being applied?
    • My sim got a popup from school where they had to make a decision to retake the test or accept the grade. In the popup they got misgendered once as she's instead of they're. Text says: "OK, so they [correct] didn't get 100%... they [correct] got 98%, which is pretty darn good. Not re-taking the test means she's [wrong] happier and less stressed out"
  • Can you share a screenshot of what you're seeing?
    • yes, see attachment

This sim is a child, assigned female at birth, is trans and uses he-him pronouns.

The notification has a mix of he and she pronouns.

Hi @mightyspritesims,

Is this modded content? I'm not sure I've ever seen this notification before.

Hi @EA_Cade , this is one of the elementary school chance cards-- if it isn't basegame it might be Growing Together?

 

I have two mods, neither of which add any school/career content or chance cards.

★ Guide

I have a sim customized with they/them pronouns. In the 'learn about new high school from principal' High School Years blurb, my sim is referred to as "Ms. [surname]". I would prefer they not have a gendered honorific, for obvious reasons. They have a default feminine body type etc., just custom pronouns.

  • They/Them pronouns
  • During the "principal's visit" school event, some instances where Them should be used, uses Their instead
  • Specifically: "The kid sitting behind *them* has decided to pelt *them* with... something."

Another one: 

 

School is out of the day. Copperdale High School is filled with 'B' students. SimName one of them. Maybe they could try to distinguish theirself more?

 

Should read:
