To be entirely fair, the vast majority of CC clothes isn't exactly better.
To be clear, I have no issue with there being options for sexy/revealing clothing. I just want there to be, you know, options. And there should be options for the male sims as well!

You must be looking in the wrong places, most of my cc clothes are everyday items that is not sexy or revealing.

A mod that makes it so an unfinished painting on the easel can be moved to a new household without it resetting and end up being only scrap.

I don't know of a creator of Male Sim Clothes that could be considered belonging to the category of "options", however CatOfEvilGenius does creat a lot of clothes that one would say are more concealing

I like the idea and please don't take this the wrong way, but maybe this should be on the Hacks You Want thread (just in case a modder might see it and make it possible)?
Also, one of the problems with female clothes is that sometimes they don't connect to the bottoms, leaving a bare midriff. In terms of more relaxed styles, a lot of female clothes seem skin-tight. There are some that aren't but you'll have to go searching through the first type.
Edit: Yes, some male clothes also leave a bare midriff.

I do have quite a few of CatOfEvilGenius' clothing in my game!
But male sims just need more clothes in general. And hair too. (Especially hair with flowers, primarily for my male plantsims; I went looking recently and ended up finding exactly one!!)

Crammyboy's "Community Lot Time" deals with that. I'm currently trying it out and I like it a lot. It was only updated to BV, but doesn't seem to cause any problems in my game. (I have everything except the Happy Holiday stuff pack and a LOT of mods, but so far it hasn't conflicted with anything). Be sure to get the last version (version 6) and be sure to try it out in a test hood first to make sure it works and that you like it.

Male hair with flowers. Care to share where you found that one?

"Lilia is at work. Try calling again around 3:00 AM."
Well, excuse you, Lilia's pregnant, she walked past my house just a second ago, and there's no way you'll accept a call at that time. Sorry I wasn't fast enough to catch her waddling by!

Took me a bit of work to track it down, since I downloaded a million hairs at the same time, but here it is: http://rented-space.tumblr.com/post...-flower-pooklet It's a 3t2 conversion, and while the preview image appears to show the Pooklet textures, I got the Remi version. :lovestruc It looks absolutely gorgeous in my game (or at least in CAS):

There's also that whimsical moment when someone calls you, you answer, and then nothing happens. That's because the instant the Sim called, they would show up at the lot. What's wrong with walking around with the cell phone stuck to the ear? XD
In case you're wondering, none of my playables do not have a cell phone, and sometimes the mp3 player and the GBA, too.

Urgh, that happens with downtown invites too. The caller suddenly turns up at the lot and I guess which scenario happens if I accept: either the caller makes themselves at home then hops into the taxi with the playables or the whole event ends without even starting.

Thanks! And you reminded me of something. If you could remove the veil from this then you could have an accessory flower for males. http://modthesims.info/download.php?t=462089

I actually downloaded an accessory flower for all ages and genders just recently. It's by Skell, and it's basically that one flower from that one hair...um, the one that's super short with the little curls on the cheeks (that often clip into the cheeks!) and the flower on one side. Anyway, the accessory is great, but finding styles that accessories will fit with is always a challenge.

Two things: when a Sim goes to clean up the mess created by another kicking the trash can - and takes the rubbish inside;
when a Sim is waiting for another to join them on the bed "relaxing", then stands up just as the other Sim arrives. Then when I get that Sim to "relax" again, the other Sim gets up.
IDIOTS!

I always drag the compost bin over right near the knocked over can so they don't have to walk very far. Maybe that's cheaty...

The only exception is when you don't want this particular coupling to occur. Then, the first one in the bed will wait forever.

Doesn't that turn your game into Sim3? No way I'm leaving my nincompoops to themselves; kids taken by authorities, babies created, families broken up..

Gabe O'Mackey and Patricia Wan somehow got stuck in a loop of laying down on the bed and then immediately getting back up. They also kept removing their clothes and putting it back on. Then Gabe went downstairs for dinner and Patricia just lay on the bed naked until Jules came up to shoo her away. I have no idea what was going on there but it was funny.

I was like, what's this game, sexism at it's best?! Drove me bonkers. |
I know this comment is from ages ago (7 Jan 2016, to be precise!), but I was just searching the thread before posting because I couldn't remember whether I'd already expressed my annoyance at Gavin self-righteously refusing to go to school because he "just can't bring himself to leave these little ones home alone" when Ginger is right there on the lot. Curious that your game has it the other way around.

There are a lot of default replacements which already exist which do just this actually. Check the default database. The pictures (thankfully) remain on the clothing one.

No, because I'm pretty sure that while the sims who went away are off world when you get back, if there were any sims left behind then you can play them while waiting for the others to get back.
