EA/Maxis has really steped in it this time. Apparently as part of their attempt at overhauling traits they made it so that Sims with the Hates Children trait will now always refuse the "try for baby" interaction unless they are currently in the "Dazed" emotion.
Commen ways for a sim to become dazed include lossing a fight, alcohol consumption, or taking medican when not sick.
So according to EA/Maxis, dog houses are abusive, burglars are triggering, and not having a 1 to 10 ratio of white to POC representation is the worst travesty in the world but actual rape is just fine and dandy.

And it didn't take long for the community to react negatively to the change, and The Sims Team responded that the aforementioned change to the Hates Children trait will be removed in the next patch. It really makes you wonder what kind of shit The Sims Team smoked to put out that kind of change to the game.
Also, this interview with Laura Miele, EA’s Chief Studio Officer, further implies that The Sims 5 will be an online game. It fits well with the "if at first you don't succeed with making an online Sims game, then try again and fail, and repeat", EA's vision of the franchise.
