It’s refreshing to hear people openly say that no one other than the parents cares about this, and I’ll take it a step further and say that’s true for the actual baby, too. Please don’t intrude on my weekend plans by expecting me to join you for dumb games to celebrate the fact you got knocked up for a third time.
I don’t think @hrhdhd and I have agreed on anything else, but I agree with this — it’s a sex reveal, not a gender reveal. I don’t make that distinction because I’m trying to be politically correct, but because I care about accuracy in the words I use. Same reason why I call it a fetus through most of the pregnancy, and why I teach my toddlers the proper terminology for their anatomy instead of using silly made up baby words.
