Father Refuses To Reschedule His Trans Son's Gender Reveal Party To Accommodate His Sister's Baby Shower

Gender reveal parties have often gone hand in hand with baby showers, aiming to pleasantly surprise parents and relatives with news about the baby's gender—whether it's a boy or a girl. It's a chance to express their joy for the upcoming addition to the family.

In a Reddit post, a dad of a transgender son is facing a challenge in making his sister understand his decision to throw a gender reveal party for his son. He planned to do it when his son's transition journey was complete. Initially, the sister said she might skip it, as she was already quite far into her pregnancy. But when she learned they were planning to do the party before hers, she got upset. Her reasoning was that her party would be overshadowed since OP's party would be the first family gathering after a long pandemic period. Scroll down to learn more about the story!
