Gay people are already implemented in the base game. I think you're referring to bi people. If it makes you feel better there's a couple mods that do that.

The guy who made the game "learned" this from extensive research. Which was probably just watching a lot of porn.

https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2016/11/02/rimworld-code-analysis/

quote:

There are no straight women in RimWorld, as in, there are no women only attracted to men. Instead, every single non-gay woman in the game has some chance of being attracted to another woman. As for the men, it works a little differently.

quote:

Notice that there’s only two possible orientations for men, gay or straight. In RimWorld, there are no bisexual men, only gay or straight men; there are no straight women, only gay or bisexual women.

quote:

In summary:

Men are about eight times as likely as women to try and start a romance.
Pawns with disabilities will always be found less attractive.
Beautiful pawns are always considered vastly more attractive; ugly pawns, vastly less. Physical beauty is the only trait that governs attractiveness, aside from sexual orientation.
Straight men always find men unattractive. Gay men always find women unattractive. There are no bisexual men.
Women may find women attractive. Gay women always find men unattractive. There are only bisexual or gay women.
All men consider partners aged 20 to their own age most attractive. If they’re under 20, they’ll find pawns 20 or over most attractive, with no regard for pawns that are a similar age to them.
All women consider partners the same age and older most attractive. Partners slightly younger than themselves are very unattractive, and partners that are 10 years younger than them are always considered unattractive.
All men consider any pawn 15 years older than themselves to be unattractive.
There is no “old age” cutoff for women. No matter how much older a partner is, women have some chance of finding them attractive.

The game dev then ranted about how this article is a 'hit piece' and how all the assumptions in his code are 100% true because of :biotruths:

I think he added the Kind trait so that those colonists would be more likely to get into relationships on account of other people having a higher opinion of them, though, so at least he addressed some of it.

yes in a game where you can harvest people's organs to sell on the market, make clothes and items out of human skin and eat the corpses of people you've skinned, the fact that an incomplete romance system was being blown out of proportion by a gaming rag that lost its credibility years ago is the end of the world.

Nah, the fact that the author legitimately thinks bisexual men are a myth just makes him a bit of a disappointment.

he says in the comments that his work was based on data collected by OKCupid (and his linked data set implies exactly the sort of system he set up) and that he's fine with changing the situation (which he did, in the current alpha pawns of either gender have ~15% chance to be bi)

there's a ton of problems with the data set he links, not the least of which that it's OKCupid, which has a rather, uh, specific target demographic, but let's not pillory tynan for being an irredeemable dongsack when he's already admitted he has a lot of work to do on the module and has done some work since this crap came out.

In a game where asking if you can skin the corpses of the people you eat to make human leather parkas is a legitimate question that will get you a serious answer.

He actually chilled out in the comments to that very rps article so it was a disappointingly brief meltdown.

And personal observations: I've known some bi women and a large proportion of the nominally straight women I've known have discussed bi impulses or experiences they've had. In contrast, every bi man I've ever known has ultimately ended up identifying as gay. These patterns seem to apply even in very gay-friendly social contexts.
Of course I'm sure bi/bi-curious men exist, but the research and what I've seen supports the conclusion that they're rarer than bi women. Conversely, gay women seem to be rarer than gay men.

As a Bi man, this is pretty lovely!
