“-Bathroom is completely interactive. Sims can take a shower, a bath, use toilet, take a pregnancy test using the toilet, wash their hand, perform actions using the mirror etc. The appliances in the sims 4 (including toilets, showers, sinks, and bathtubs) will need repair, and the frequency depends on the quality of the item. The sim can either call a plumber or attempt to fix it themselves. The sink, toilet, and shower\/tub need cleaning every once in a while. The type of actions a sim can perform depends on their age (ex. toddlers cannot use the toilet, they use a seperate potty) bathrooms are not gendered. in create a sim mode, one can assign a sim a way of peeing. so a female sim can “pee while standing” and vice versa -The “City Living” expansion pack includes two robotic toilets (“Talking John” and “Potty Mouth 2.0”) which Sims can speak to. -“Get Together”, “Jungle Adventure” and “Snowy Escape” expansion packs include “party bushes” that Sims can use as toilets, they do not violate privacy” – Sims Wiki<\/td>\n“One of a sim’s needs bars is hygene. When the bar is too low, a sim starts to smell bad, affecting, the sims around. That sim must take a shower\/bath in order to get clean again.” – Sims Wiki<\/td>\n“-Sims will not autonomously invade another sim’s privacy, they must be told\/forced to do so by the player. If a sim’s privacy is invaded, they will gain an embarrased emotion that lasts several hours. -Gendered bathrooms are available, but the player must use the gender labelled doors -In create a sim mode, a gender can be assigned to the sim. If no gender is assigned, the game will determine the sim’s gender based on their body type (breasts vs. no breasts). But the option to pee standing up\/sitting down will still be availble to all genders -Only sims who can pee while standing can use the urinals -The game is very inclusive but there are still players out there who think EA should “the fix the gender problem”” – Sims Wiki<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
