what's even the point of gender reveal parties anymore

especially with the rise of trans visibility--

oh fuck

[Superjohn 2.0]

Gender reveal parties are so freaking dumb, and considering some of the stupid shit they do, dangerous.

Wait, what's the "oh fuck" about?

[Whistle]

maybe gender reveal parties are becoming more common and destructive BECAUSE of trans visibility

like

what if somebody ends up burning down california's redwood forest for a gender reveal party

and their kid turns out to be trans

...I don't really see the connection between those two things.

If someone burned down the Redwoods for a gender reveal party, it wouldn't make any difference if their kid grew up to be trans, because they'd be in prison for burning down the fucking Redwoods.

[Kennifer]

what if someone comes out as trans by throwing a gender reveal party for themselves

Well, being transgender doesn't preclude your being stupid/malicious/maliciously stupid.

lol I was thinking more like... a cake filled with m&ms or popping a balloon full of some colorful confetti than something that's gonna burn down the redwoods.

(but yeah, you're right about that lol)

Stupidity is common among the human species, the only way to combat it is KNOWLEDGE!

In regards to this point, I think what you're worried about is that some parents who throw gender reveal parties do so because they want to... prevent their child from being trans?

In which case, why would that help? Throwing a big ol' party confirming their assigned gender won't change anything years down the line should little Johnny say he'd rather be called Janet. People who throw gender reveal parties (the types that go horribly wrong, anyway) don't do so because they want to stop their kid from being trans, they do so because they're inconsiderate, self-absorbed assholes with no regard for public safety.
