I know another bahumbug yell at cloud post but whatever

And gender reveal parties (which basically have become 2nd showers)

Why can’t women just have their own things and not feel the need to drag men around to their shite? When was the last time men were clamoring to bring women to poker night, deer camp, bowling league, fishing/golf trips, etc

I am not forced to do shite. Grow a pair.

For the ones I've been to, the men just hang out and drink beer while the women do the festivities. Doesn't seem like a bad deal to me

Hopefully you can fight off the gun to head next time.

You just choose to attend gender reveal parties and baby showers/sprinkles

And gender reveal parties


I'm 37 years old with a 2 year old and I've never attended a baby shower or a gender reveal party

Sounds like you have a controlling wife. Just tell her you aren't going.

The solution is to just get belligerently drunk and you won't have attend any more of them.

Grow up and be a man. Your father would be so disappointed in you

I assume they were enticed by promises of beer drinking.

You say “nope” and don’t go. Unless they’re gonna have a good food spread. Then monster truck that table like a fat kid.

There should be a gender reveal for men that feel like they are forced to attend a gender reveal party.

Don't go. I went to one, told my wife I was never going to another one, and haven't been to another one since.

These events all have booze and socializing with friends and family, what's the big deal?

ETA and who's forcing you to go?

Because... women.

Also, it might help out if the guys just said "no".

Are men being dragged to these events in handcuffs? I am a woman and I don't even go to showers. If the recipient is someone I care about, I will send a gift.
