Slaves and masters falling in love is a common, if slightly problematic, trope.

Instead of whining about immersion, think of it as a way to progress the story. Does this mean that these men are different and deserve to be part of the colony? Were you wrong about all men? Or are they just slaves that perform another... service?

If you believe that your ideoligion would consider this abhorrent, change the policy on physical love to prohibited.

There are mods that add this. The base game won't add this for two reasons:

First, Rimworld colonies do not exist for the time frame required for this. Even if we take the very generous view that a 10 year old can work like an adult and assume the best case scenario where a colonist is impregnated in the first season, that's 11 years from game start to a colonist planting their first healroot.

How many colonies have you had that lasted this long without destruction, winning, or simply deciding to start a new game? If the answer is more than zero, you're in a minority.

Second, Rimworld involves a lot of nasty things. A moral player will have to deal with raids, disease, famine, rabid elephants, and all manner of dangers. People are uncomfortable when this happens to children- for good reason.

Immoral players will eat the babies and wear them as hats. Media backlash aside, this is enough to push the game into Adult-Only rating and potentially get it pulled from Steam.

Don't even start on the fact that if there are pregnancies, there will be unwanted pregnancies.

I noticed my cannibal feasts were getting poor quality, even at 100%. It turns out they aren't getting any room bonus.

The ritual start screen displays the full 20% bonus. However, the room's impressiveness is checked at the very end of the cannibal feast. Since the feast generates a massive amount of bloody mess, by the time the feast was done my very impressive dining room was awful.
