Due to a feature oversight ("bug"), we can't change likes/dislikes and romantic/sexual orientation for servos.
When The Sims 4 Lovestruck comes out, this problem will extend to turn-ons/-offs and romantic/sexual boundaries, since those systems build on the already existing systems for likes/dislikes and romantic/sexual orientation.
This problem hasn't been mentioned in the Laundry List of fixes that will come with the next patch, and the longer it takes until it's fixed, the more servos will have randomised turn-ons/-offs and romantic/sexual boundaries that can't be changed. There's already a problem with servos having romantic/sexual orientations that can't be changed, we don't need to extend it further.
Therefore, could you please consider to click "me too" on this bug report and/or to reblog this post 🙏🏼 Me and my servos would be very grateful if you did 🥰

Today is two years since I started to post my little story about Beren, now called The Brights, over on Twitter, and I started to post it over here a little less than a year ago.
I could never have imagine that it would become something so intricate, and then we haven't even gotten to most of the bigger things that I planned before I even started with the story!
Here's a little summary of the past year, with one picture from each of the 21 chapters (chapter 15-36) that I posted this year.
And I hope there will be many more chapters, because I love to play with these sims 🥺
Also, I'd love to hear, do any of you have a favourite scene or situation from the story? 😊
Beren: Oh, hi, yes. Don't sneak up on me like that when you come home.
Melon: I have been in our doorless kitchen, 7.63 meters away from you, for the past 38 minutes, baking chocolate chip cookies. They are in the oven now.
Beren: You baked cookies?
Melon: Yes, I baked cookies. For you.
Beren: How come you decided to bake cookies for me? Is it a new hobby?
Melon: You have been feeling down for the past few weeks, and you have started to drown yourself in your studies and programming projects again. This is not much, but I wanted to try to cheer you up. It might be a new hobby too.
Eve: What kind of app is that? You can look at people and decide if you want to meet them?
Kodex: Basically, yes. It is a dating app.
Eve: That sounds useful. I will text Melon about their existence.
Kodex: I am quite sure that Melon knows about dating apps, but I guess it will not hurt.
Melon: Excuse me, Eve texted. I will just answer, and then I can be social.
Eve: Oh, she just wanted to find an artist who can paint her picture. I thought she was looking for someone to go on a date with.
Kodex: This is the date.
Eve: I thought sims eat at dates.
Kodex: I guess he is eating her with his eyes.
Eve: How would that work? Sims cannot eat with their eyes.
Kodex: I did not mean it literally. I meant that he checks her out. Watcher, this scene is awkward.
Eve: It looks like a normal painting session to me.
Melon: There is something I would like to bring up.
Beren: Mhm?
Eve: I do not think she likes her portrait.
Kodex: Neither would I have.
Melon: I know that I have been a bit prickly lately, and therefore probably not too fun to be around. So it might be my fault that we have not hanged out much, but I miss hanging out with you.
Melon: So, I was just wondering, can we do more fun things together again?
Beren: Of course we can! I haven't felt that you've been prickly, I've just had a lot of other things going on.
Eve: Oh, that was an unexpected resolution.
Kodex: But it does make sense. She seemed to be interested in a physical relationship at first, but what she really needed was one built on a strong romantic foundation before going into something more physical.
Eve: But what if they are placed here by the government, to spy on us.
Kodex: Eve, please do n-
Goldie: Wait, you are right! Other birds, such as ducks and swans, like to swim, but pigeons do not do that. Maybe they cannot be in water because they are machines. It all makes sense now!
Kodex and Melon: ...
Eve: Um… There is one sitting here listening to us right now. It makes me nervous.
Kodex: Goldie, did you have to put ideas into Eve's head?
Goldie: Sorry…
Melon: I am guilty too, I should not have brought it up to begin with.
Melon: Maybe we should go somewhere else, somewhere where there are not any birds.

And here are four pictures from a Dress Up / Alternate Universe Prompt game. People gave me prompts, and I dressed up my sims in a separate save file. All of these are just me playing around with the ideas from the prompts, so they're completely AU and not canon 😆

Beren: Oh, good morning. I didn't expect you to come in here, I'm sorry that I'm a bit… undressed.
Melon: It is okay. I will not look.
⠀
Beren: Then stop looking in my direction.
Melon: Sorry. It is a habit… To look in the direction of the person I am talking to, I mean.
⠀
Beren: Did you charge in here after all?
Melon: Yes. I had not turned off my microphones yet when you said good night, so I heard your apology.
⠀
Melon: I am sorry for the way I acted yesterday.
Beren: It's okay.
⠀
Melon: No, it is not okay. I was prying, I was intrusive, I was snarky, and I overreacted. Just because something bothers me does not give me the right to act like a llama.
⠀
Melon: The thing you told me yesterday morning, I did not have any problems with it at all, at first, but when I noticed that you look at people… I just started to think too much about it.
⠀
Beren: Just because I look at someone doesn't mean that I want to woohoo with them.
⠀
Beren: But why couldn't you just let it go or tell me that it made you uncomfortable?
Melon: The idea got stuck in my head. I wanted to figure out who that "someone" would be. I am sorry.
⠀
Beren: I'll be less explicit next time, it was an impulse to stop you from prying.
⠀
Melon: Hi, is it all right if I come over?
⠀
Eve: Of course!
⠀
Eve: Okay… Is there anything I have to hide before they come?…
⠀
Beren: Hm…
⠀
Beren: It feels like something doesn't really add up.
⠀
Melon: Ughhhh… I am an idiot.
Eve: Um…
⠀
Melon: I do not think I like it when Beren is impulsive.
Eve: Okay?
Melon: As in how he expresses himself on impulse.
Eve: Mhm…?
Melon: I was prying and he told me something about woohoo that I did not want to know about, and I acted like a llama because I am an idiot.
⠀
Kodex: What is going on?
⠀
Kodex: Why is Melon on the floor?
Melon: Because I am an idiot.
Eve: Something about Beren and woohoo.
⠀
Kodex: Okay, I am out of here.
⠀
Eve: I am sorry, but I am not sure how to help you.
Melon: It is okay. I might try to become one with the floor instead.
