Recommendations: LGBT+ Mods by Tiakall

Every dateable character in Stardew may be canonically bisexual, but for all the guys, gals, and nonbinary pals who want to queer up their playthrough a little more, may I recommend the following mods?

LGBT Player

Gender Neutrality Mod

Link
This mod allows you to freely customize and/or remove gendered words and pronouns from dialogue involving your farmer. The flexibility of the fill-in type text boxes is great no matter the pronouns or terminology you use for your character; from a they/them nonbinary farmer to a gnc neopronouns user!

Platonic Partners and Friendships

Link
For the aromantics among us, this mod lets you choose vanilla dateable characters to BFF and allows you to get up to 14 hearts with them without being married/romantically involved. Also rewrites their heart events to be platonic rather than romantic.

Top Surgery Shirts for FS

Link
Adds "shirts" for Fashion sense that allow the farmer to be barechested with top surgery scars, for the gender-euphoria seeking trans men and transmasc among us.

LGBT NPCs

Ridgeside Village

Link
You've probably already heard of Ridgeside, but in case you needed more reasons to get it: Jeric is equally flirtatious regardless of your farmer's gender, Lenny explicitly has a former relationship with another woman, Sean is explicitly trans, Kiarra is lesbian-leaning and butch, and there's a lesbian couple (but telling you who would be spoilers ;) )

Visit Mount Vapius

Link
If you needed more reasons to play with this lovely expansion, it features an older lesbian couple and a bi woman who sells pride merchandise.

Sunberry Village

Link
Stardew's newest expansion has a divorced gay couple, two nonbinary characters, and at least six lesbians. You need this mod.

Sydney

Link
Adds a new (beautiful!) trans lady NPC, a marine biologist named Sydney.

Casper and the Box

Link
A genderfluid vagabond putting the disaster in "disaster queer".

Juna

Link
Juna is aro and is only roommate-able, not romanceable. Also a ton of fun.

Mothman

Link
Ever wanted to date a lesbian cryptid? Now you can.

Always Raining in the Valley

Link
Mia is trans and her story will touch on her gender identity when complete.

Wren the Plumber

Link
And Mia's new neighbor is very obviously a trans lesbian.

Rose and the Alchemist

Link
And their neighbor down the lane is asexual (and full of sass)!

The Fishmonger

Link
Constance is lesbian and will have upcoming content related to that!

Juliet and Jessie, the Joja Clerks

Link
In more subtle representation, Jessie is implied asexual and Juliet is implied female-leaning bisexual.

LGBT Lore, Edits and Replacers

Diverse Stardew Valley

Link
This beautifully drawn and highly intricate and customizable sprite and portrait replacement mod includes transgender Penny and Sam, and nonbinary Emily, Sebastian, and Abigail.

Lumisteria Letters from Parents

Link
Yeeting heteronormativity: not just for the farmer anymore! Modifies the vanilla letters and adds additional letters, with customizable parent titles that allows for same-sex or queer parents.

Mx. Qi

Link
Tired: gendered title Mr. Wired: gender-neutral Mx. This simple patch replaces every mention of Mr. with Mx., making it easy to headcanon Qi as nonbinary. Pairs well with more attractive Mr. Qi, which gives them a more androgynous look. Or, you know, just make them pride colored.

Nonbinary They/Them Maddie

Link
This little mod simply changes Maddie from Ridgeside Village to be a nonbinary person who uses they/them pronouns.

Rival Hearts: Jeric and Alex

Link
Gay rival hearts between Jeric and Alex. Yes? Yes.

Good Luck, Haley!

Link
Gives Haley dialogue which gives her a story arc of coming out as sapphic.

Queerify Stardew Valley

Link
Edits NPC dialogue so they don't constantly treat you like you're heteronormative.

Pride in the Valley

Link
Adds LGBT-positive dialogue to vanilla NPCs for some lighthearted tweaks to canon, multiple queer-themed quests, and a pride passive festival!

Piper - a Pierre replacer

Link Replaces Pierre with Piper and makes her and Caroline a lesbian couple.

Emyn's Pride March

Link
Adds a pride march festival on Summer 1.

Emyn's Queer Dialogue

Link
Adds LGBT+ dialogue for vanilla characters, including compatibility with DSV's trans Sam and Penny.

Prideful Decor and Items

Pridematic Shards

Link
Okay, these shard recolors are pretty neat-looking. Plus, gays can't resist puns. (Source: me, i am the gay who can't resist puns)

Pride Pastries

Link
In Exhibit B of "gays can't resist puns": gaystries. Pride Pastries includes a plethora of new sweets and goodies to make in all your favorite rainbow combinations. (Note: Seems to be working in 1.6 but does require JSON Assets.)

JA Colorful Tulip Pride Edition

Link
Let the LGBT+ among us who has not planted some version of a pride flag in their gardens cast the first stone. (Animal Crossing counts, too!) Now you can take the guesswork out of colored and get packs themed for each major pride flag. (Note: Seems to be working in 1.6 but does require JSON Assets.)

Lumisteria Flower Pride Banners

Link
Lumisteria's beautiful flower pride banners have been updated for 1.6 and included with her main furniture mod.

Pride Giant Tamagotchi TVs

Link
Not only can you turn your TV into an adorable Tamagotchi (complete with keychain ring) but now you can get them in a variety of colors.

Stardew HRT

Link
Adds craftable hormones, for the DIY trans folk.

Pride Arches

Link
Adds decorative pride arches for your farm. Also comes in extra large!

Primal Pride Paintings

Link
Turns the 'Primal Motion' painting into a variety of colorful chevrons.

Elle's Farmhouse Pride

Link
Puts a little pride banner on the vanilla or Elle farmhouse.

Brighterbat's Pretty Pride Flags

Link
There are several pride flag mods on Nexus, but this one is, well, pretty :3

Zaoux's Pride Flag Banners

Link
Vertical pride banners to pair with the horizontal ones above!

Soren's Big Gay IKEA Trip

Link
Furniture for all the IKEA gays in your life, including the iconic blahaj.

1.5 Mods and Retired Mod Hall of Fame

Gender-Neutral Ridgeside Village

Link
Does the same thing as the mod above, but for Ridgeside Village dialogue! Now a part of the main Ridgeside mod!

Free Love

Link
Into polyamory? This mod allows you to date, marry, and smooch as many spouses as you think you can handle. (Also allows them to smooch each other!) Includes a rewrite of the group 10-heart events to be polyamory-friendly. Broken in 1.6..

Multiple Spouse Dialogs

Link
If you're into multiple spouses, you're going to want this mod as well, which allows your spouses to have dialogue with each other. Also excellent for the shipper in all of us. Includes a Shane/Harvey set of dialogue by Celty which is delightful. Broken in 1.6--but has an unofficial update!

More Prismatic Stardew

Link
Adds pride-themed clothing, crops and custom clumps. Not yet updated for 1.6.

Custom NPC Riley

Link
Riley is a genderfluid they/them user who flops between masculine and feminine presentations thanks to some clever coding shenanigans. They are romanceable. Broken in 1.6 due to obsoleted dependencies.

Bye Bye Clint, Hello Clarice

Link
This mod replaces Clint with a far more interesting trans (and PoC!) woman named Clarice. Mostly broken in 1.6.

Systemworks' Doctor Hazel

Link
Another vanilla-to-custom swap, this turns Harvey into a trans woman named Hazel and beefs up the dialogue. Not updated for 1.6.``
