The Sims 4 does have a fair share of traits that we can pick from.

• Sims 4 Lgbt Mod 2020
• Sims 4 Adult Custom Content

But many of them can get quite repetitive if you’re one of those who like to have a ton of Sims in one town.

It gets to a point where all sims have the same traits over and over again. And that’s when an injection of much-needed variety comes in handy.

By supporting creators you love on Patreon, you're becoming an active participant in their creative process. As a member, you receive exclusive content, community access, behind-the-scenes updates, and the pride of fueling work that matters to you. There are a couple of small outdated/broken mods that I have not gotten around to fixing so I will leave them off of this list for now. Get To Church (Updated 11/29/20) Better Elders Mod (Outdated, use at own risk) Korean Movie Overrides. Fitness Competition Event (Broken) Cooking Competition Event. The mod itself adds 4 new hobby traits to the game, one of which is the Bar Drinker trait. It also adds Chess Lover as well as Coffee Lover and Beauty Lover. Get your sims invested in what they love and select what that is for them before they are “born”. It is the most important mod that was created for the LGBTQ+ simmers and their simselves. The LGBT mod allows your sim to open his or her potential to the fullest. There’s so much on the spectrum of human sexuality, and glorious creator PimpMySims4 tried to give us as much of it as possible in our Sims 4 game.

As such I’ve compiled a list of the best custom traits add-ons that we can install for The Sims 4, all thanks to the work of a group of fantastic modders.

All of these mods are 100% free, and they can be downloaded using any of the links below. Have a gander and see what you think.

35. Alcoholic Trait

Alright I know you might’ve thought that this was going to be quite a lighthearted list, but I’m starting it with the darkest trait of them all.

The Alcoholic Trait makes your sims live depending on alcohol, which means that they will often get depressed for no apparent reason.

And they’ll only be happy when they’re having a drink or three.

For alcoholic sims, it’s never really too early to have a drink.

It’s up to you to control them or watch them burst through their minibar to make themselves a morning margarita.

34. Lot Traits

The Lot Traits pack allows you to select specific traits for a lot, allowing you to have a better level of customization in your towns and cities.

With Lot Traits you’ll be adding a bunch of new options and customizability to the game environment.

Banks, airports, train stations, bakeries, and much more.

All of them will be available to be selected as lot traits with this mod! Sounds kinda like Sim City huh?

33. Lifestyle Traits

This mod adds four new lifestyle traits to the game, two of which are very political.

You can have your sim be a Republican or a Democrat, which I actually find hilarious because the game avoids politics as much as any other.

However I’m including this mod because it adds the Meditator and All Rounder traits, which make fantastic additions to the game.

32. Hobby Traits

If you don’t like your sim to be an outright alcoholic but you still want them to enjoy a few drinks, then this mod has a trait that’ll serve you well.

The mod itself adds 4 new hobby traits to the game, one of which is the Bar Drinker trait.

Cute right?

It also adds Chess Lover as well as Coffee Lover and Beauty Lover.

Get your sims invested in what they love and select what that is for them before they are “born”.

31. Bossy Trait

This seems like a trait that could’ve easily have been in the base game.

So naturally, it’s one that I’m adding to my list.

The Bossy trait makes it so any sim that has it feels superior to the rest, which in turn makes them think that they can boss everyone else around.

It makes the sim a bit annoying. But we have to deal with people like this in our lives all the time, so why wouldn’t those who live in sim world be subjected to the same fate?

30. Handsome Trait

The Handsome Trait is fantastic for those looking to create a good-looking sim and have others recognize him for it.

This trait makes it so making friends is much easier, and every female sim will also be far more interested in your male sim than any others.

With great power comes great responsibility, though.

So be careful with how you influence others with your charming good looks.

29. Autism in Sims 4

This is a pretty serious trait mod, but one that everyone looking for a realistic experience should have in their game.

The Autism trait make sit so sims act as if they had autism – they repeat the same activities over and over again, they have issues communicating and performing any type of social activities. And they can only speak to others about a handful of topics.

It’s not a mod that’ll make your sims better in any way.

But it does add a lot of realism to the game and puts things into perspective for your others sims; figuratively speaking.

28. Arrogant Trait

Arrogant sims are extremely confident (being confident is their default emotion) and they absolutely hate failure.

They suffer negative status changes by failing or getting embarrassed in front of others.

It’s a very well-made trait, and I really enjoy having the option to make my sim a bit of an arrogant prick if I’m doing one of “those” playthroughs.

27. Feminine & Manly Traits

The Feminine and Manly traits allow your sims to feel more connected to their roots.

And each of these mods comes with one additional status change depending on random factors.

The mood of your manly sim can change and have him be more confident, or the mood of your female sim can change to have her be happier.

A cool little mod, even though these traits don’t change that much.

26. Blessed & Cursed Traits

I think you can already imagine what these traits do – they basically change the life of a sim without them having any control of what happens.

The cursed trait will make your sim’s life a bit of a living hell, whilst the blessed trait will make the life of your sim feel like they’re in heaven.

Which one would you rather have? I know which one is certainly more fun.

25. New Emotional Traits

These amazing emotional traits are basically extreme versions of other traits in the game.

You’ll have a Stoic sim, for example, which is a sim that is always super calm.

You may also have an Egghead sim which is a genius that always seems to be talking about nerdy stuff and might bore other sims with their jib-jab.

I love this because it truly makes every sim more unique than they are in the base game – extreme emotions are common among people and they should be in Simland too.

24. Two-Faced Trait

“Two-Faced Sims are untrustworthy, dishonest and backstabbing.”

Well, damn. That’s one hell of a description.

I’m guessing this trait is based on someone they know in real life or a bad breakup… but hey, let’s not complain and hope they’re doing better now!

This mod adds the ability for sims to be untrustworthy pricks. That should totally have been in the base game.

23. Spiritual Trait

Get in touch with yourself and with nature with the spiritual trait, which will make your sim feel more attached with the things we can’t see but make us feel more pure.

Having good karma is important for many people.

And now it will be important for many sims as well.

It’s time to balance those energies that float around and keep your sim in the purest of states of mind.

22. Anxious Trait

If you want a challenging but realistic trait mod then this is the one you’ll want to download.

The Anxious Trait mod makes your sim incapable of controlling their anxiety, which will result in a generalized increase of panic attacks and the inability to keep a hold of themselves in many situations that wouldn’t cause any issues to other sims.

It’s based on a real disease, so be ready to enter a new plane of realism with this trait.

Trust me it won’t be fun at all. That’s why I’m adding it to the list!

21. Bipolar Trait

The Bipolar Trait is another trait that makes it to this list not because it’s extremely fun, but moreso because it’s very realistic.

It makes your sim prone to having massive mood swings and basically turning into a bit of a maniac.

You’ll see your sim enter depressed states all of a sudden with no explanation. Well, as your Sim god I think you know why.

A realistic mod, but just like the autism and anxious traits, this is going to be challenging to play with.

Many people suffer from this so it’s natural for sims to go through something similar as well. This mod allows that to happen!

20. Naïve Trait

Here’s a fun trait that is actually very reflective of how many people are in real life.

The Naïve add-on makes it so that sims are not able to pick up social skills easily.

But they will also get less embarrassed by certain situations with others because they simply don’t have the ingrained social qualities.

They also open up far easier to other sims, as they don’t think others will hurt them. So that leaves room for lots of mayhem.

19. Author Trait

Sure, you can have the aspiration to be an author.

But with this mod, you will be able to have the trait as well!

Experience the thrill of creating fictional situations and have it as your passion by adding this trait to one of your sims.

It’s a fantastic complement for anyone that has the goal of becoming a best-selling author, and an overall fun one to have if you plan to make a sim that lives off writing royalties.

18. Boyfriend & Girlfriend Material Traits

These two complementary traits make sims much more prone to enjoying the time they spend together.

Being with their partner will increase their mood by a landslide, and finding that special someone is sure to make them the happiest sims in their respective blocks.

If you’re going for a serious relationship playthrough this mod is a must-have!

17. ADHD Trait

Looking for a challenge, are you?

Well give this mod a test run and tell me what you think of it.

It makes sims become bored at a much quicker rate, and also makes it harder for them to maintain any sort of serious relationship with others.

They will be friendlier and easier to interact with, but they’ll struggle to focus at work or at school.

It has a few benefits for sure. But it’ll mostly make your playthrough a bit more of a challenge(which can be fun too).

16. Insecure Trait

A nice little mod that will make your sim always feel embarrassed by being the most insecure person in the room.

It also makes them unable to feel confident, so be prepared to struggle if you want to maintain any sort of relationship or find that special someone.

15. Mama’s Witch Trait

Nope, this is not a negative trait mod.

Don’t be too judgmental on witches – not all of them are bad!

The Mama’s Witch Trait mod allows witch sims to be friendlier and much more open to others, and it will also give them the ability to gain certain skills much faster than other sims.

They can’t be tense or bored, and they will always be focused. It’s a very positive trait mod you’ve gotta believe me!

14. 7 New Traits Teen Pack

It’s time for those teenage sims to be able to feel more emotions that real teenagers feel.

As such, this mod adds 7 new traits that can only be obtained by sims on their teenage years.

The traits all come with custom icons that make them fit right in with the other traits in the game.

Variety is always welcome, and the New Traits Pack is the way to go if you’re looking for it.

13. Depression Trait

We’ve all gone through our own periods of depression in our lives, right?

I don’t think that’s just me. And if it is, I want my sim to come along for the ride.

The depression trait makes your sim prone to having the same emotional issues that we all get when we’re depressed.

The trait doesn’t make your sim clinically depressed.

But it does make it feel very much like it.

In any case, if you want a challenging experience with your playthrough this is one of the trait mods that I totally recommend snagging.

12. Baby Maker Trait

Having fertility issues?

Worry not, my friend, there’s no need to go to a fertility clinic when you can simply put the Baby Maker trait into use.

With this mod your male sims will be far more likely to put a baby in whoever they choose to sleep with.

As with others in this list, I must repeat: with great power comes great responsibility.

They will truly become freaks of nature with this add-on and almost every woohoo will end up with them having children.

11. Internet Kid Trait

This trait does seem like a pretty weird one to have in an adult.

But the Internet Kid trait is the one you want if you’re looking to have your sim spend countless hours on the computer like you did when you were younger.

This basically turns every sim into a computer freak that never gets bored of staring into a screen.

Sounds a bit too familiar to me…

It’s meant to be used mainly by sims up to the age of teenagers, as afterward it would just be a tad weird to have the trait on them.

It works on adults too though, so don’t worry. We can all be PC-addicted in our fantasy games.

10. WooHoo Lover Trait

The Woohoo lover trait makes the sim that has it basically addicted to woohoo.

You will get buffs to your sim’s emotions every time they engage in woohoo with other sims.

Many people who play the game are freaks, let’s face it. And that’s why mods like this one are so popular.

In any case, the Woohoo lover trait is by far one of the best for a freaky Sims 4 session.

All buffs last for 4 hours as well so be wise to use your new woohooing abilities in strategic situations.

Sims 4 Lgbt Mod 2020

9. Siren Trait

Sirens are flirty entities that can basically engage socially much better than any other sim in the game.

You will be able to level up your social skills much quicker than with any other sim (and this also includes mischief).

The only disadvantage of playing one of these sims is that the relationships and bonds that they have with others are also quick to decay much faster than your average sim.

This always puts your sim on a flirty mood as well.

It really does fit women much better than men, as it makes far more sense in terms of the effects of the trait as well as its essence.

8. Reaper Trait

Why hack the game to make the Grim Reaper a playable character when you can add the Grim Reaper trait instead?

This mod makes it so certain sims act pretty much like Death itself.

They will not be able to die, and as time goes by, they will become apathetic to being alive for so long. Causing them quirky side effects like not wanting to be around anymore.

Yeah this is getting pretty dark really fast.

In any case, it’s quite a unique mod and one that differs from the rest of the trait mods on my list.

I loved it, and I’m sure you will too!

7. Shy Trait

Finally a mod that represents us shy people!

It kind of makes us look bad, but we are a bit like this trait portrays.

With the shy trait most of your social interactions will become really awkward and your sim will basically fail at doing most of them.

This is one of those traits that makes the game a tad more challenging.

Some of us play with this trait in real life, and if you like your sims to act like you do then this is the one you might like to install.

I personally like this more than the other socially akward traits because it feels more “realistic”, if that makes sense.

6. Zoophobic Trait

Your sim will never be able to stare at another wild animal the same after you install the zoophobic trait.

It will make your sims irrationally scared to the wild creatures of the sim world, and you’ll have to deal with that to prevent them from having panic attacks.

Odd, but frankly most on this list are just plain strange.

It’s a fun little trait that adds a bit of challenge to the game but doesn’t make it ridiculously hard.

5. Culinary Inept Trait

Alright let me be honest and tell you why this trait is ranked so high up on my list – I’m a terrible cook.

I make a killer chicken, but other than that, the taste of the food I prepare is miles from where I actually want it to be.

It’s taking me a lot of time to get better at it. Do you see where I’m going with this?

Yes, this mod makes it so sims become exactly like me. Yay!

It adds a bit more realism too, as sims tend to pick up cooking quite quickly even when they haven’t done it before.

Feel the struggle of making terrible pancakes like me with this mod.

4. More Traits For Kids

Kids in the Sims universe seem to not have enough traits to pick from, and this mod aims to change that.

Sims 4 Adult Custom Content

You will be able to select far more traits for your kids once you install this mod, which will allow you to play with more diversity even at the younger stages of a sim’s life.

Boost up the life of toddlers and make the game far more entertaining with these traits.

3. Gamer Trait

Become a true gamer in the Sims world.

With the gamer trait you will be able to level up your gaming skill much faster than the average sim.

If you think you’re good enough to become a streamer and make money out of it, then the Gamer Trait mod is the one you’ll want to install.

And if you can’t live it in real life then isn’t that exactly what The Sims is for?

Playing video games well is no easy feat. But some people do have a knack for it.

This trait will turn your sim into one of these people – make the best out of it and get those streamer simoleons.

2. Drama Queen Trait

Become the typical movie girlfriend with the Drama Queen trait.

This mod will make every sim that has the trait throw a tantrum over the most trivial of details, making them quite annoying to live or deal with.

Many people are like this, and I’m sure you’ve come across your fair share of drama queens in your life. It’s time to bring reality into virtual reality.

This would also seem like a trait that could’ve made its way to the base game, so if you’re looking for vanilla-friendly traits I would say you’ve come across one of the best you can find.

1. The Singer Trait

It’s so frustrating that singing is barely a skill and you can’t make a career out of it.

Even the musical branches make you either play piano or guitar! Why can’t we become singers, dammit?!

Well this trait won’t let you become a singer. There are career mods that allow you to do that, but with the singer trait your sim will have a natural knack for singing and will become much better at mastering the vocal arts.

Again, if real life doesn’t match up just bring it over to The Sims.

Bust your local chords with the singer trait and outshine the rest of the artists that roam your virtual cities.

One of the things that makes pride so special is the fact that not only does it celebrate how far we’ve come, but it spreads awareness to those groups that aren’t as represented.

It brings people together, and continues to relay the message that we’re not going to give up!

Everything and all things pride give everyone a chance to come together, to feel like they’re not alone, to build up the community and positivity. Which is probably one of the most important messages of all.

Many of us still wear out t-shirts and pins well after June has ended, and for good reason!

And we want to spread this love even more, maybe incorporating it into our Sims games.

Everything from shirts, socks, flags – there are countless options out there for expressing pride.

So let’s take a look at some CC well worth downloading!

15. Pride Upper Arm Tattoo

Tattoos are one of the best ways to express yourself.

So what better way for your Sim to put their pride on their sleeve by having it literally right on their arm?

These beautiful upper arm tattoos come in four different designs, all with a rainbow color theme.

And they say more than words about how important LGBTQ+ representation is to you(and your Sim!).

These also can be used temporarily as a body paint accessory for when a Sims pride event comes around!

14. Pride Face Paint

Whether your Sim is out at a protest, a parade, or wants a cute way to spice up their makeup, this Pride Face Paint CC is absolutely the way to go.

Face paint works wonders for any look that you’re trying to add a little extra flair to. The way that it’s placed on the face gives it that freckled look that everyone’s been chasing after lately, all while going against the grain.

This set of facepaint even includes 40+ swatches, so you’ll have fun scrolling through all of the different options and finding the right look to express whatever matches your Sim.

13. Pride Glasses

Who could go wrong with a pair of sunglasses?

Not only are they a functional accessory that have served their purpose for years, but they come in a variety of styles and colors.

So many that it’s hard to not find the perfect pair of shades.

With that being said, these Pride Glasses are the perfect example of how they can go a long way, from the circular lenses to the colorful, bright designs in just about every flag color combination you could think of… they definitely come out on top!

There are even three different ways for your Sim to wear these glasses while they’re out an about.

Try wearing them on the bridge of their nose for the classic eyewear look. Or on the tip of the nose for a carefree way to sport your glasses.

Or even on top of their head and out of the way!

12. Pride Flag Accessory

Sure, you could put your flag up on display in your Sim’s home.

But what about wearing it on their clothes?

With this Pride Flag Accessory CC your Sim can wear the flag they wave on their backs like a cape. A nice accessory for any event that they want to show the world who they truely are!

This comes in 40 swatches so no one’s left behind. Plus wearing your pride flag as a cape is way cooler than any superhero cape could ever be.

11. DIY Pride Jeans

Do you like the idea of having your pride be part of your outfit… but maybe you’re looking for something a little more subtle?

Maybe you’re even looking for something more unique than what you usually see when it comes to pride attire.

If that’s the case, have no fear. Because the DIY Pride Jeans CC are here!

Jeans with painted back pockets are a fantastic way to give old jeans new life. And with the loose fitting style and the rip just below the butt, they’re not only a stylish pair of jeans in the first place… but have added meaning with the custom paint color on the back.

It can be intimidating to have to fully commit an outfit to one specific theme.

But now you can pair these with a basic top and some plain sneakers and have a comfy outfit that still does the job just as well.

10. Harmony Eye Liner

Makeup keeps on getting more clever.

It never ceases to amaze me all of the wonderful and skillful ways that people think to incorporate art onto their faces that always looks so beautiful and well done.

While this look is more on the subtle side of things, it’s equally as glamorous as other looks.

And it has a pretty significant meaning, too!

This eyeliner comes in 40 swatches, is compatible for both masculine and feminine shaped eyes in the game. It would pair great with the face paint CC earlier in this list, also from the same creator.

9. Pride Undies

Whether your Sim is looking to keep these to themselves, or they have someone special in mind they want to get dressed up for, this set is definitely the way to go.

Made complete with underwear (panties and boxers), bras, and some fashionable knee-high socks that are a staple for getting cozied up at home.

These Pride Undies have got you set when it comes to having everything in your Sims life pride-themed. Even the things most other Sims probably won’t get to see.

8. LGBTQ+ 2019 Pride Shirts

I, for one, have always been a big fan of black graphic tees.

They’re so versatile, they can go with just about any outfit you want, and they don’t look lazy.

Not to mention they pair with everything from jeans to casual skirts. And you can still express yourself with words, characters, and anything in between.

That being said, black pride shirts have all of the benefits of regular black graphic tees. But now they have your favorite words on them, and they mean something really important.

What better way to tell the world about what you believe than this set of Sim tees?

With shirts that have sayings like “Gay isn’t a choice, hate is” and “Let’s get one thing straight, I’m not” there’s something for everyone here.

And you’re sure to find one that fits your Sim.

7. Pride Toddler Tee

Start them off young!

There’s no reason your younger Sims should have to miss out on all the pride fun.

Whether you want them to learn acceptance and love, or maybe they have two moms or two dads, this toddler tee CC is a nice way to show how understanding your Sim children are.

This tee comes in 19 swatches with prints such as “Love wins” and “I love my moms”. They rise up for any and all occasions.

6. Pride Bracelets

Some accessories aren’t meant to take off when you go to bed every night.

And this is a great example of one.

Your Sim can show off their pride 24/7 with this bracelet around their wrist.

Not only is it a pride themed bracelet, but its beaded design is way too cute to pass up!

5. Proud Pride Recolor

When summer rolls around, your Sim needs to be cool and comfortable.

And of course, wearing their pride crop top!

They’re the perfect thing to wear to their next parade, and feature a variety of LGBTQ+ flags such as pansexual and genderfluid for every Sim out there.

4. Punk Pride

This is the best pack for everything you could possibly need that’s pride-related in The Sims 4.

It has everything from objects to makeup to accessories, and what makes it even better is that it comes with a little bit of edge.

Things like the rainbow-studded jacket that come included in the Punk Pride pack make it worth the download. And is the best way to get your lot decked out before Pride Month kicks in again!

3. Coming Out Mod

Being gay was already an option in The Sims. But do you sometimes wish you could give your Sims the full experience?

That nerve wrecking conversation that you have with your parents when you finally feel the time is right, and you finally let them know who you truly are?

Well then make sure to check out the Coming Out Mod.

This gives your Sim the chance to clarify exactly what their sexuality is to other Sims.

Of course, it comes with a variety of different emotions that can be felt by your Sim afterwards. Because as the creator of this mod put it:

“Coming Out is a very emotional thing”

And it even has other features such as telling their coming out story to others and expressing acceptance. Very detailed.

2. Pride Month Mod Pack

We can’t wait around for it to be June in real life. So if you want Pride Month to return but don’t want to sit around and wait, this is the mod for you!

It affects certain cities like Windenburg and Del Sol Valley, and gets the towns ready to go for celebration.

Flags, banners, and more. Your town is going to be decked out and ready for Pride.

1. LGBT Mod

The LGBT mod arguably offers the best experience for Sims to properly live out their sexual identity.

The mod comes fully equipped with traits that will give them special whims, drag show events, special social events, and more!

For everyone in your town to experience all the joys the LGBTQ+ community, this is just the mod to try out.

Some of my personal favorite highlights of this mod are things such as planning LGBT charity galas, giving your lot special traits like LGBT hotspots that spawn Sims of similarity, and pride spirit being a holiday trait.

Unfortunately, as in real life, this mod does have a homophobic trait. Which does add more realism, but kinda ruins the mood.

However, there’s a way for you to encourage those Sims to be open-minded. And if successful, that trait will disappear from that Sim. A victory in my book!
