10. surprise
Mon Sep 7, 2020, 08:00 AM

In a world where there are so very few genuine surprises, are these parties really necessary?
Are they not simply obnoxious presentations of tailored shopping lists? If a child is born without one of these ludicrous color oriented parties, will the adults not know what gender the child is? Another symptom of the extreme narcissism perpetuated and rewarded in our culture.

I'm curious, too, whether these people throw baby showers, then, too, for another round of gift grabbing...

Makes me want to get pregnant, then have a gender reveal using, I dunno, yellow and green.
