How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
What is your current game version number? 1.58.63.1010

Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Create a household with 2 female Sims in a married relationship

What do you expect to see? I expect to not be given whims which are outside the scope of the game's capabilities.

Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. I am unsure if this is new, but I haven't encountered it before (though I haven't played many same-sex couples)
Screenshot attached of "try for baby with" whim issue. The couple is Nancy Landgraab, and a female Sim I created.

Archiving this thread as per Patch 1.90.358 as Whims are being replaced by Wants & Fears.
Good Luck

edited, thanks!

Have you previously edited one of them to make others pregnant, or set that for your sim during CAS? I've noticed this Whim appearing after making that change for a same-sex couple in my game, even though I reverted it after they had their first child.
Note that same-sex pregnancies aren't outside the capabilities of the game, and this may just be an issue where the game forgets to check the compatibility between partners for pregnancy.

No, I hadn't edited either

Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Occasionally (10% - 49%)
What is your current game version number? 1.62.67.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Discover University, Island Living, Get Famous, Seasons, Cats and Dogs, City Living, Get Together, Get to work, Realm of Magic, StrangerVille, Jungle Adventure, Parenthood, Vampire, Spa Day, Vintage Glamour Stuff, Perfect Patio Stuff, Outdoor Retreat, Cool Kitchen Stuff, Spooky Stuff
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have two Sims of the same gender (both cis) married.
What happens when the bug occurs? A Sim is getting the whim to Try for Baby with their spouse who has the same set of reproductive organs as them.
What do you expect to see? Impossible whims not popping up.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure
Recently, one of my Sims keeps having the Try For Baby whim, when she's in a relationship with another (cis) woman. So, as amazing as science is in the game, I don't think that's yet possible.
Like it's lovely to see, but...
