Pregnancy and Sex Worker (and Reverse Cow) are Kinks of the Month for March (v3.22 & v3.23)
🕑 Added 2021-02-15 06:29:54 +0000 UTCThe results for the Kinks of the Month poll for March are as follows (Main Poll Votes + Bonus Poll Votes = Total)
- Netorare (you're the cuck) 12 + 5 = 17
- Netori (you're the bull) 22 + 10 = 32
- Cowgirl (bill Corr...) 14 + 5 = 19
- Reverse Cowgirl (Rap... music) 23 + 19 = 42 (only came third, see below for explanations)
- Missionary (paul Ince...) 24 + 11 = 35
- BDSM 11 + 8 = 19
- Gay 11 + 8 = 19
- Lesbian 8 + 4 = 12
- Trans 9 + 3 = 12
- Sex Worker 32 + 15 = 47
- Watersports 12 + 8 = 20
- Transformation 16 + 4 = 20
- Pregnancy 33 + 18 = 51
- Old-Young 13 + 7 = 20
- Interracial 9 + 3 = 12
- Foot Fetish 4 + 0 = 4
- Non-NTR Voyeurism 4 + 3 = 7
- Group Sex 14 + 9 = 23
- Toys 7 + 2 = 9
- Tentacles 12 + 6 = 18
Accordingly:
- Pregnancy will be the focus of v3.22 (6 March). The Discord community brainstorm period for this kink will be from now to 1 March.
- Sex Worker will be the focus of v3.23 (20 March). The Discord community brainstorm period for this kink will be from 1 March to 15 March.
Both kinks will then be excluded from the polls for two months (since April and May don't have KotM updates, they will be excluded for June and July instead), allowing others to have a go
Reverse Cowgirl (Rap... music) was the unlucky loser this month, at one point it was only one vote less than Pregnancy but Pregnancy gained a lot of votes in the last few days of the poll to break away. It's a shame that it now has to wait until June to have another shot at winning the next KotM poll. Obviously I can't just favor it over the actual two winners. Instead, I'll do the following for March to hopefully keep fans of all three kinks happy while still staying true to the poll results:
- 3.22 and 3.23 will still focus entirely on Pregnancy and Sex Worker respectively, but in each update, only 75% of the content will come from the Discord community brainstorm. The other 25% of each update will still be about Pregnancy and Sex Worker, BUT will specifically focus on new Pregnancy and Sex Worker content that is only available if the player ALSO has the Reverse Cowgirl module enabled.
- For example, for v3.22 (Pregnancy), 75% of the update comes from the brainstorm as usual, the final 25% will be about pregnancies caused by "Rap... music", which obviously will have unique consequences and shouldn't just be treated like any other pregnancies in terms of finding baby daddy or your current partner blaming you for cheating. Also, if you're the impregnator in the situation, depending on her personality, the baby mama obviously will treat you differently than if the pregnancy comes from a loving relationship.
- Continuing the examples, for v3.23 (Sex Worker), 75% of the update comes from the brainstorm as usual, the final 25% will be about prostitutes being "rap... music" by pimps and johns, about 'rough' por n co-stars and about being 'strongly convinced' to enter the adult industry.
I think these are interesting topics to explore anyway, so hopefully many of the Pregnancy and Sex Worker fans can enjoy this 25% of their update as much as the RCow fans. Even if they don't, there's still the other 75% of each update that comes from the community brainstorm as usual. Overall, Pregnancy and Sex Worker will still have one update each in March dedicated entirely to them as part of their Kinks of the Month victories, while "Reverse Cowgirl" will still get about half an update worth of content in the same month. What's more, because RCow didn't actually win officially, it's not excluded for two months like the two winning kinks and will be available as an option in the next poll and may get even more content then if it wins.
I hope everyone can understand that by definition, kinks / fetishes are like marmite, you either love them or hate them. One person's favorite kink could be something someone else hates with a passion. Therefore, as a dev, I'm faced with a pretty impossible job of keeping everyone somewhat happy so even if you're not entirely happy with KotM results, I hope you can see that I'm already going an extra mile to find compromises and please keep the complaining and arguing to the minimum on here and on Discord - it doesn't solve anything or help anyone.
One final note about Pregnancy: yeah, from past experience so far, it's just extremely popular so if you're someone with no interest in this kink, I'm afraid you'll have to accept that it's always likely to win every time it's available as an option to vote on. And if it's truly that popular and the majority continues to crave content for it, it deserves the update dedicated to it and it would be unfair for me to impose an even longer exclusion than two months. HOWEVER, it looks like there's some good news coming up for the non-Pregnancy fans:
Obviously it's hard to predict future Patreon growth and it's not wise to take anything for granted especially since we're still in a middle of a global pandemic with many experiencing financial difficulties, but from the growth so far this year, it looks like 2021 will be the year when the $1000 a month milestone for the LifePlay project will be reached. As soon as this milestone is reached, from then on, each month will have 3 updates instead of 2. Out of the 3 updates each month, 2 will be Kinks of the Month updates and the third update, provided that I don't have any non-kink features that must be worked on first, I'll use for the less popular kinks also (like I've done for the past for Watersports etc). Once that happens, the 'invincibility' of Pregnancy won't be that much of an issue anymore for non-Pregnancy fans since no matter how popular it continues to be, due to the two-month exclusion, it can only win max one update for every 9 updates, or maximum 4 updates out of 36 updates each year. Once the $1000 milestone is reached, the less popular kinks will get much more love than they're receiving so far. If luck would have it, by the time Pregnancy is back on the poll again (August), maybe this milestone has already been reached and even if it wins again then, it won't be a big deal for fans of other kinks.

My ideas: - Multiples (twins and more) with larger bellies - Increased or decreased arousal during pregnancy with custom text - Post birth conversations about childcare or making a sibling
Thank you for doing that for us, Vinfamy! I apreciate your efforts to make everyone satisfied and I hope you reach $1000 soon and even more! LifePlay is my favorite game and I'll continue supporting your work.
