Another week, another Sims expansion...
Give your teen Sims everything they need to express their unique style with The Sims 2 Teen Style Stuff! Now your teen Sims can show some attitude with all-new, unique furniture, decor items, fashions and more with three distinct themes - "Goth", "Thrasher" and "Socialite". Give your Sims a new phone, stereo, TV and other gadgets to keep them up to date and in touch with their friends. Make sure your Sims are always sporting the latest teen fashions including track suits, designer jeans, and yoga outfits.
Loving the destructo-goth sims:
The Dark World Of The Goth
- Transform your Goth Sim's room into a reflection of their dark soul with gloomy furnishings like a black and red armoire and plush, velvet chairs.
- Fill their wardrobe with dark and rebellious attire including buckles, belts and heavy boots for him and leather, tattoos and fishnets for her.
I dunno, in my day, goth girls wore heavy boots and goth boys wore fishnets too. This is not progress :-/
What? They're not giving the girls big boots? Pah. Bloody trendies.
And as for not letting the boys have items in leather or fishnet - Christ, that was half my wardrobe a decade ago...

I know, it's really wrong. EA being all conservative and fuddy-duddy!

Oh great, another expansion for Gem to clog my hard-drive with. There'll be no room left for Quake Wars at this rate.

Right, that's it. We need to organise a bunch of influential goths/ex-goths to lobby EA to get their content right.
Given that someone pointed out that the best way to cripple the Internet infrastructure of the UK would be to bomb Slimelight on a Saturday night, it couldn't be that hard...
(Of course, this ignores the fact that both our Goth clothing sensibilities are probably equally out of touch with the Kids on the Street these days. From what I've seen, the main item that EA needs to get right are the unisex black hoodies and silly oversized black flared trousers...)

Well true, but it's a point of principle: taking away a mangoth's ability to wear fishnets is oppression! :)
