Gilbert Baker's Pride Legacy: an LGBT Legacy Challenge
General Concept & General Rules
This Sims 4 challenge is based on Gilbert Baker’s original 8 stripe rainbow pride flag. Baker assigned each stripe a meaning connecting to the LGBT community. Each generation embodies one of these stripes and their meanings.
Every generation heir must complete their aspiration and reach the top level of their careers. Each heir must wear at least one item of their respective stripe colors at all times. Each heir can be any gender, including trans and nonbinary genders, unless specified otherwise. Each heir can be any sexuality, unless specified otherwise. The only rule: the main sim cannot be both cisgender and heterosexual/heteromantic. You are encouraged to hang the pride flag of your sim’s identity, whatever you decide it is.
For written rules, keep reading below. For rules in graphic form, see here.
Note: Diversity is a cornerstone of our community. Please be conscious of the sims you use to play this challenge- LGBT people can be all body types, all races, and all religions. Everyone deserves spaces in the community and in your gameplay.
The rules contain uses of the packs listed below. Each instance is noted by the acronym next to the name. I have provided base game alternatives to each one of these uses, noted next to each use!

Gen 1: Pink (Sex)
You were raised by extremely uptight parents and were denied every aspect of pleasure as a child. Now, as a young adult, it’s time to explore! You’ve always enjoyed the finer things in life - that is, sex, food, and art. You might have a little bit of a hedonistic streak, but what’s wrong with that? So did Dorian Grey! Your goals in life are to have as much sex, eat as much good food, and see as much great art as possible.
Traits
Lovebug (LS) (alternative: romantic)

Have three gold star dates at an art museum
Open a food stand (HCH)
Have 3 fully-satisfied partners at once (either with Lovestruck romance satisfaction or just by having full relationship bars)
Gen 2: Red (Life)
Your parent/s brought you up in a life of luxury - you always had the best food, the best clothes, and you spent lots of time at art museums. You want everyone else to be able to experience life’s same pleasures, so you turn to charity. You like to make everything with your own hands and give them away - it makes you happy to see your work out in the world, making others happy and living in community. That’s the meaning of life, isn’t it?
Note: this gen has two aspirations, which might feel overwhelming, but the Neighborhood Confidante one is only one level, and the goals overlap with this gen’s goals!
Traits
Generous (FR) (alternative: Good)

Give to charity at least once a week after you move out of your parents’ home
Gen 3: Orange (Healing)
Your parent/s loved to give away everything they had. While that’s an admirable choice, you’re a little different. You’re all about objects - you like to have as much as possible, in order to provide a good life for your future children. You fall in love young and immediately start a family, hoping to spend the rest of your life with them. Unfortunately, you get too wrapped up in your work and your spouse divorces you. You spend the rest of your life trying to help your children and heal yourself. You’re also a very caring person and want to help everyone you can, and you choose a career which allows you to do so. All you want is to see your kids succeed in life.

Gen 4: Yellow (Sunlight)
Your parent/s were always really set on you being successful, which was annoying. Not that you don’t want to be successful, it’s just that your definition of success is pretty different than theirs. You’ve always felt a little different, a little alien in your own body. When you’re a teenager you realize you’re trans, and begin taking steps to feel more at home with yourself. As an adult, you’re happier than you’ve ever been, and you’ve even found the love of your life and discovered your love of music - the only thing is, you’ve been so focused on your transition you forgot about… the career, making-money part of life. You don’t really care. You find a small house and live there with your partner and children, never working, just enjoying your happiness and creativity.
Sim Characteristics: must be transgender (binary or nonbinary). Can be any sexuality, including straight

Freegan (EL) (alternative: lazy)

Never have a job, even part-time
Live on an off-the-grid lot for at least one age category
Gen 5: Green (Nature)
Your parents were the perfect couple, and they never stopped talking about it. They were each other’s first and only loves, and they want the same kind of never-ending love for their children. The thing is, you’re not sure you’re into that sort of thing. The most important thing, to you, is Mother Earth. You’re dedicated to preserving nature just as it is - and you find a group of friends who have just the same goal. You live with them your whole life, and eventually you decide to adopt a child together. You’re excited to pass on your love for the environment to a new generation.

Make your heir have the bad manners character trait (PH) (alternative: unhappy infant trait)
Gen 6: Turquoise (Magic)
Your group of caregivers taught you to value and care for nature. So you took it to the next level and connected with nature so much that you became a spellcaster. You use your magic to help others, mostly - and summon a few animal friends. Your unusual communal upbringing gave you a few interesting traits- you’re fine eating out of the garbage, and you’re always up for an adventure, no matter how reckless. But you’re fun-loving and magical, and what more could anyone ask for?
Traits
Adventurous (SE) (alternative: goofball)
Loves Outdoors
Glutton
Career
Secret Agent
Aspiration
Spellcraft & Sorcery (RoM) (alternative: Chief of Mischief)
Goals
Max the mischief and rock climbing (SE) skills (alternative: fitness)
Achieve rank 6 spellcaster (RoM), have either a Leafbat or Glowfrog familiar (RoM) (alternative: finish the MySims trophy collection)
Have only one child, make the child have the low self-esteem trait (GWT) (alternative: unhappy infant trait)
Have a partner in crime as a child or teen, pull three successful pranks at school
Gen 7: Blue (Harmony)
Your parent was fun-loving and literally magical- they could summon animals at will and clean the floors with a flick of the wrist. Unfortunately, that kind of lifestyle didn’t bode well for a stable upbringing. You’re going to do everything you can to be the parent you never had- you’re determined to have a large, loving family, living in harmony with the world and each other. You want the most typical, average, perfect suburban life possible. But you have some… erratic traits you inherited from your parent. Plus, society’s idea of a “perfect normal family” doesn’t include a nonbinary, bisexual parent. These things seem like obstacles to your dreams- but eventually you realize it’s not you that’s wrong, it’s just that society’s picture of perfect harmony needs to change to include you.
Sim Characteristics: this sim must like multiple genders and be nonbinary/genderqueer
Traits
Erratic
Perfectionist
Romantically Reserved (LS) (alternative: Family Oriented)
Career
Salaryperson (SE), either branch (alternative: business, either branch)
Aspiration
Big Happy Family
Goals
Have 4 kids
Take your family on vacation at least once in adult life (to any vacation world, or alternatively, to a park every day for a week)
Max the parenting (PH), baking (GtW), and knitting (NK) skills (alternatives: charisma, handiness, cooking)
Have a max relationship with a high school sweetheart, but break up and marry someone else
Live in a typical blue suburban house in Brindleton Bay (C&D), Copperdale (HSY), Willow Creek, or Newcrest
Have two cats or two dogs (C&D) (alternative: have another child)
Gen 8: Violet (Spirit)
You had the perfect suburban life. Your childhood home was filled with laughter and love and many, many siblings. Your parent had a steady job and was the kindest, most loving parent in the world. But you still feel like there’s something missing. As a child you hate being around people and instead find solace in fictional worlds. Finally, you realize you’re missing some excitement, a spark, and a deep community. You decide to reconnect with your ancestors - both your actual family ancestors, and your queer ancestors of the past. They guide you throughout your life and lead you to your happiness, helping you gain confidence, love, and spirit - and help you realize you’re not alone in this world.
Sim Characteristics: if you’re a part of the LGBT community, I encourage you to make this sim reflect your own identity, if possible! If you’re not, I encourage you to make this sim an identity you haven’t encountered thus far in this challenge- go through the flags and see which ones you haven’t used!
Traits
Loner
Self-assured
Bookworm
Career
Freelance Paranormal Investigator (PS) (alternative: freelance writer)
Aspiration
Extreme Sports Enthusiast (SE) (alternative: bodybuilder)
Goals
Max the medium (PS), writing, and skiing (SE) skills (alternatives: comedy, fitness)
Live on a haunted house (PS) lot for at least one stage of life (alternative: live on a lot with the spooky trait, meet 10 non-family ghosts)
Befriend every past heir in their ghost forms
