Gender reveal "party"


Totally go for the free booze and grub, then make yourself disappear somewhere with the other blokes whilst the lasses gather together and pretend it's great whilst slagging each other off behind each others backs.

Just a piss up isn’t it with a balloon burst at some point
Sounds like an absolute nightmare of an afternoon in a garden, having a drink with a buffet. The whole day would be marred by momentarily stopping a conversation about the cost of replacing tyres too find out the sex of a loved ones unborn child.

Or it's attention seeking for the social media generation.

You're very generous. Can see your point.
 
Been invited to our friend's pregnant daughter's gender reveal do today at 2pm and am dreading it . Never been to one of these in my 62 years on this planet and dont know any one who has so no idea what it entails (apart from and exploding balloon or something filled with blue or pink confetti)

Cant really back out so the plan is to be cordial and smile a lot , offer congratulations when appropriate and exit said do at earliest possible opportunity
Think of the positives. Her tits will be massive if she’s preggers.
 
My best mate and his lass had a one for their second kid. Went after work, was there all of about 10 minutes and then fucked off straight away.

Some US imports are decent and this certainly isn't one of them in my eyes. Made even more boring if you're the driver and can't have a drink whilst you're there.
 
How does this work then? Does someone from the hospital inform a member of the family who then orders said colour balloon?

Not knowing and seeing my Daughter for the first time was the (equal) best moment of my life - as I regularly tell her, it's not every day you beat Man Utd at Old Traffird to get to a Wembley final

So what if it is though. It’s part of young peoples way of life these days and some people use it for good. I would never begrudge younguns a day of enjoyment. It’s an exciting time for them and nowt wrong with celebrating that.
 
I think all the God stuff is bollocks but if good friends were having a christening, I'd go along, zone out a bit during the religious stuff, and enjoy being with them for something they're proud of and happy about, and raise a drink to them and the little one after. Can't see this as being much different. Gender reveal parties baffle me a bit, but all the above would apply.
 
Someone in the year above me had her gender reveal with one of them that shoots out the back of your exhaust, in the corner of Morrisons car park at Dalton park :lol: Wish I was joking
 
Gender reveals are transphobic and should therefore be cancelled. If the authorities get wind if it social services might get involved. How can anyone think of bringing a bairn into that man woman man? Are there protests planned?
