Note that I’m not just talking about the shitheads who cause forest fires or water contamination, with their bullshit. I’m talking about ANY of this dumb shit.
People used to have some goddamn dignity. If you wanted to keep the sex of the baby a secret, then you’d have both pink and blue cigars ready to hand out, after the birth. If you wanted the doctor to tell you, then that’s fine. You’d be talking to your friends and you’d go “yeah, the new kid’s gonna be a girl.”
The whole concept of an extra baby shower, just to hoot and holler about that shit is FUCKING INTOLERABLE.
As far as I’m concerned, it shows that these dipshits are only interested in their offspring as accessories to their own lives. They’re after the attention they can get, off the back of their children. They’re after the lifestyle of being a parent, so they can associate with other people who define themselves based on the social and material trappings of parenting. And they’re drooling after social media likes and views.
Anyone who participates in that shit is proving that they’re not interested in being the parent of a human being. They’re just making a doll to dress up and pose for pictures, starting before the child is even out of the womb.
To reiterate the title: if it was up to me, everyone who has ever had any kind of gender-reveal nonsense for their upcoming kid should have that child seized by the state, hopefully to be raised by real people, rather than soulless degenerates.
Not just unpopular, but also extremist. 👏 Congrats.
I was legitimately expecting the word “breeders” to come up with how much OP seems to hate anything to do with new parents celebrating their new parenthood.
Well, that’s odd. Hunh… checks notes
Username does not check out. 🤷🏼♂️
It’s sort of aspirational, ya know what I mean?
Aspire harder
heavy breathing intensifies
If being a chill dude is your aspiration, getting this mad about something that has zero impact on your life is not the most effective way to achieve it.
Brah you need to smoke like …way more weed than you’re smoking. Really just go hard into edibles.
This is a generalization on the same level as “all black people are…” and makes just as much sense. I think they’re stupid too, but did it because it’s what everyone but the parents wanted. I didn’t think the day was about me, but my parents and in-laws were excited about the whole thing, and it made them happy. But apparently that level of self absorption means my two children should be taken from me…
You need to re-examine your life.
It is annoying, but you’re way too extreme. Take their kids from them!? You are an actual crazy person. You should not be allowed near schools.
Agreed. It’s annoying for sure, but OP is insane. Even if it’s stupid, there’s absolutely nothing about it that indicates negligence of anywhere near the degree needed to justify forcibly removing a child from their parents.
Where is this attitude coming from? I really don’t get it. People have their kids taken away from them all the time. For a whole bunch of different reasons. It literally happens every day. I just want to add one more reason, and it’s a perfectly good one.
I’m genuinely confused by your extreme reaction.
It’s not a good one and you are a crazy person.
Reasons like drug abuse, negligence, and celebrating in a way that you specifically don’t like? It fits right in with the other causes…
You are seriously unhinged
Seek help
Listen to everyone here. You are not well. You need serious psychiatric help. Please stay away from all children and get professional help. You are not well.
When you get older, it gets harder and harder to find an excuse to get all your friends together, so you start making up BS reasons to do so. I don’t see any harm in it tbh and I seriously doubt that you actually believe those people are “already an unfit parent, and [their] kid should be taken from [them], at birth,” and if so, please go outside more and look at what life is like for children who are taken from their parents (parents who are presumably loving and financially sound enough to throw a party for them).
get all your friends together
Ain’t nothing stopping you from just getting together, for some less stupid reason. Do that.
And you’re wrong. I absolutely do believe every word of what I said. Even though the foster-care system is literally a torture and assault machine, it would be better for kids to be sent through that shit than to be saddled with parents who do fucking gender-reveal ceremonies. If you do that shit, you might as well just wear a t-shirt that says “I’M NOT JUST A MORON, I’M A NARCISSISTIC, SELF-OBSESSED, SHALLOW MORON.”
If you’re in foster care, you at least learn the truth pretty quickly: your caregivers don’t love you, and you shouldn’t trust them.
But if you’re being raised by biological parents who are narcissistic morons, you might not realize that fact for your whole life. And so you’re likely to be their willing slave, plaything, soldier, etc, all the way to their dying day.
I feel the same way about people who own decorative throw pillows so I def see where you’re coming from here.
I feel the same about people who make posts like yours. Its pretty narcissistic to assume the reasons you think they do it are the only reasons.
A bit rich for the pot to be calling the kettle black. Whats more gross is you are downplaying actual abuse when you put unimportant shit like this on the same level as actual abuse.
I think gender reveals are fucking stupid…but I don’t know I subscribe to the idea that if you do one it makes you an unfit parent.
I also can’t fathom why anyone would envy the lifestyle of a parent. I’ve not slept properly in 6 years and I never get a moments peace 😭
Someone got forced to go to a gender reveal party
Excellent post, very unpopular opinion, very fitting. Also f**k you.
Hmmmm yes I’m sure the government will raise those kids better 😅 Fr though besides this being a massive over-reaction, you’re having your own “throw the baby out with the bathwater” moment.
Well that actually seems like an unpopular opinion
This opinion is, indeed, quite unpopular, but I don’t want to up vote and encourage people to harbor untreated mental illness like this.
OK that’s fucking stupid. I don’t like gender reveal parties either, but that’s a HUGE overreaction. People having different opinions about trivial things is not a reason to take their kids. WTF is wrong with you?
Its not my thing but I can understand why people do it. I had friends who had a ton of fertility issues and several miscarriages. Finding out the gender on ultrasound is a milestone. They had never had a pregnancy last that long. It means they made it that far and all looked well. They wanted to celebrate as much as possible. They didn’t care what the gender was and that pregnancy meant the world to them. I don’t think she saw her son as an accessory at all. Who am I to get upset when people find an excuse to throw a party? There are some people who see their children as accessories but throwing an extra party isn’t the measure of that.
Get a hobby
Lol, spoken like someone that specifically hates a certain couple. You compared it to a baby shower, but it’s a distinctly separate deal. Where a shower is for the parents, they get gifts and such to prepare them for a new child. A gender reveal party is more like a wedding, it’s a party for your friends and loved ones, more the soon-to-be grandparents. In the past where medical tech couldn’t accurately guess the sex of an unborn child, sure, people would get pink and blue stuff, but when that changed, finding out became a bit of a milestone in the process. Some people keep it low-key and just tell people who ask, others want to make a cute event of it. Your post says far more about you than the people you call “soulless degenerates”.
