Yeah but I’ve never actually been to one, and my children are grown lol. People didn’t do nonsense like that when I had babies lol. We did other nonsense 😂

Why not have a gender reveal party now for your 32 year old child? It'd be just as dumb as the ones for unborn kids

It's just as dumb to do a gender reveal for a child you don't know the gender of as it would for a 32 year old? Reddit moment.

Because gender reveals are dumb

Why do you think they’re dumb? Genuine question. The only ones I think are dumb are the ones that are harmful to the environment or downright dangerous. Popping a couple confetti poppers with family in your own backyard seems fine and normal. You gotta tell people the baby’s gender one way or another, why not have a little fun with it?

This is what I meant in my comment lol. I think so too, but yet what IS the harm of having a little gathering about it? I guess it’s the disasters that have happened that make me feel that way.

As a trans man, I find gender reveal parties to be especially stupid.

You're not actually revealing the gender... You're revealing what kind of genitalia the baby has.

Congrats! It has a penis! / vagina!

I know, trans people are "rare", but your identity is located in your brain. There's where your personality is. Not in your genitals.*

I'm very glad this silly tradition isn't as big here in my country. It's getting more popular though. I hope I'm never invited. I wouldn't be able to STFU.

*Exceptions do apply. Some people are literal dicks/pussies.
