Don't you think that it would be brilliant if your bimbo could get pregnant i think there has already been a debate about this but i thought i would open up a new topic so that people could air their opinions if they want things like this or not. I wonder if the administrators could make it possible for our bimbos to get pregnant. Or even to set it as another goal to achieve.

maybe not as a goal as not everybody likes the idea, but maybe as an option later on then yeah. if it were a goal a lot of people might not want to play whereas if its an option then people wont be bothered so long as they dont have to do it, if they dislike the idea

Very good idea but it would be a fun opportunity for people if they wanted to do it.

Well... I don't think it's a good idea at all. You can't just have a baby and be done with it. There would be subsequent baby-based responsibilities and goals, and would change the tone of the game drastically. Just play The Sims. I do, and it's great if you want your characters to raise families. This game, to me, is about the life of a bachelorette, or at least the life of a woman outside of her family. Our bimbos are hardly candidates for motherhood- they're about clothes, challenges, careers and men. Not diapers and bottles.
Not to mention all the controversy it would cause. "Web game encourages girls and women to objectify and belittle the process of having a baby" Or something. It's early where I am, so excuse my inarticulate phrasing.

It should be avalible as an option yeah 
Offline

Yes but if it was available as an option then its the own persons choice of their own will its not like it is being forced on them. If it was a goal that had been set then it would probably attract a lot of attention of the media. I heard about this game of the news as it was seen as encoring young people to become bulimic and have operations to make there selves look good but although it had a lot of media coverage the site is still up and running perfectly fine. There's always going to be people with different websites but if they shut down every website that people didn't like then it would mean hardly none to browse.

It's no different to young kids playing the sims, and getting them to "woohoo" in bed IMO.

My little sister plays the sims and in no way does it encourage her to go out and perform the acts that they do on the game its just a bit of fun that people like doing. Yet there was a lot of media coverage on this but not on the sims. Somehow I believe that, that is a bit eary.

Exactly, it's just a game! People are getting so overprotective over things on screens

Oh well XD We know it does them no harm, just wish they did!

I agree, this game is not about making babies. its about living the life as a bimbo and the bimbo way is not to have babies.

It's called tone. The Sims is a game that is, at it's heart, entirely ABOUT raising families. And while there actually HAS been media controversy over the act of "woohoo" in the game, it generally hasn't been that big of a deal because you can't argue that child-rearing fits within the tone of the game.
This game that we all enjoy, however, is not about raising a family. Why would you want to change the tone of the game to something that so goes against what it's about? Once your Bimbo has a baby, if you consider all things equal, she probably wouldn't have time to do all the things she likes to do now- it would put forth a model of sub-adequate parenting. Bimbos having babies comes off to me as equating children to status symbols. Even if she did have the time- say, hiring a sitter or something. What would be the function of these babies? Or of the pregnancy? How much value could it REALLY add to the game, that it would be worth the change of tone?
And finally- what do you think it says about the general consensus there seems to be these days that it's perfectly okay to just go out, get pregnant, have a kid and pawn it off on someone else to take care of? All over my neighborhood I see very young girls conceiving children. Most of the time her parents wind up caring for the baby. Not to mention the government. Pregnancy, childbirth, and children are a massive set of responsibilities. Can't we be happy with the puppies and kittens? They're responsibility enough for our bimbos.
And before I get the cries of "omg its a game! lighten up" I get that. I really do. But not every game can encompass every aspect of life. This game is about single chicks, not babies. I think it should stay that way.

Well at the end of the day there is going to be a lot of people with different opinions but you need to respect one another's. Where some people it may be wrong others may believe it would be good. You cant blame websites like this and other media examples for the stupidity of young children going out and getting pregnant as that is their own decision not any fault of websites etc..

Really this kind of game isn't going to have a huge impact on a persons life. Its a game which may just show you things. When i was in high school i had the responsibility of looking after a plastic maybe baby which would show me what life with a child was life and it was annoying and that showed me that i unable to cope with a child at such an early age maybe something like this could do the same.

I don't see how this can teach anything about babies and taking care of them. You play this online when you want or when you can. Baby is not like that..

I don't think anybody here has disrespected anybody else's opinion. There's a difference between respecting another's opinion, and holding your tongue back from voicing your own because it clashes with somebody else's.
The reality of the matter is- while you can't blame a website ENTIRELY for somebody's actions, any influence of any kind can still contribute to a problem- and there's no denying that. The idea is finding a balance between unnecessary negative examples and censorship. Keeping our bimbo's from having babies would hardly pose as an example of stifling a creative medium or censorship.
Anybody who enjoys this site knows first hand that you can't blame media for the actions of young people and children- that a lot more is involved in their decision-making (or lack thereof) than what they see on TV, in games, or hear in music. But I DON'T think that it should excuse people in control of these media outlets of a certain level of responsibility. The makers of GTA have a label that gears the game for Adults. After that it's up to the parents. This site, however, is to be enjoyed by many ages. If certain elements would be introduced to the game, they might alter the accessability of the site- or eventually have to be removed. Like the diet pills were.

Yes but different thing need to be tried and see how they work and that is why things were removed they are tried and they didnt work. You speak a lot of sense and have a good outlook on things. But if you dont try things how can you know f they work or not

I can't understand where the idea of babies even comes from, it just doesn't go with the game at all. She's a bimbo not a mother. She dates all these men for their money so she can buy clothes, get her hair done and have surgery. Bimbo's aren't supposed to want babies they are supposed to want rich guys with cars and designer suits. I would prefer my bimbo to have a car than a baby.

I think that in this sense, it'd be a form of "preventative medicine". Sometimes it's good enough to make a judgement based on past examples and current popular opinion on a subject. This is not to say that at some point the overwhelming majority might feel comfortable with and even favor the idea of bimbos having babies. But at the moment, it doesn't appear to be that way. And for good reason.

Which is understandable but it may be that its a percentage of people that disagree with it whereas some may want it.

I have kids and pets in real life and for me Miss Bimbo is all about me
I love dressing my girl up and shopping for her! I don't even have a pet on here because I don't want the responsibility of caring for it, but I sure don't care if other people have them. They're cute!
Offline

Im for it , but also against it.
There is young kids on here , and they might think its great to have babies an what not on here and think about having a baby of there own will be great aswell .
I'm only 15, but i understnd about this kind of stuff, if you get me?... I know that if i had a child now, it wouldnt all be great, it would damage soical life and i know i'm not ready to be a parent in anyform what so ever ...yet.
but as i said, some one aged what 12? and maybe younger might think its all a great idea and decide that they want to havbe a child this early in thier own life. I know some one who had a child at the age of 14 but she did pretty well with it, shes now about 18 and has her own family and another child and everything has tured out okay, but not all cases will be like this.
But you cant blame a Internet game if some one was to go out and get pregnant, so on that im quite for it, i wouldnt mind if it was something that you could do, i would proberly do it !
Sorry this is rather long!!! But its just th way i see it!

PM me if you have one too
