Shall I kick of this round:

Anne and Jennifer walked around the gender reveal box, at their nieces gender party. They had fun and were so glad that the niece will be having a boy. The fact that all these new things are organised to tell whether birds will have a boy or a girl is somthing in our days we didnt do , said Jennifer. And a party for 27 birds with cake and balloons, we didn’t do either. And the money ohhh dear .
But I have to say it was a great afternoon now back to work, dear and hope it will be a beautiful feathered baby

Sort:  

Oh dear, Anne and Jennifer don't like gender reveal parties.. seems like they very old fashioned birds and tight legged too. 😂😆
Thanks for kicking this round off with this sweet story @brittandjosie
I do hope their niece has a nice fluff baby.

I also mentioned the contest in my new feathered blog today hope this helps a bit , and i hope adding things to the original photo is a new thing too, good luck dear

Yeah, I noticed, Thank you for the mention and yeah that is a new thing like the collage contest, makes things interesting

i had never heard of a gender reveal party before so when i read this images of people revealing proof of their gender came to mind. i was wondering what i had missed in my sheltered life

Gender reveal is for babies yet to be born. In some cultures it is another reason to have a party. In our country it is a punishable crime .. How far the east is from the West.

i did realize what gender reveal party in this case referred to, but you have to admit the wording invites interpretation. when i lived in the usa there were baby showers and i presume there still are but the guests usually know the gender of the baby and choose a gift based on knowing it. here in norway i have never heard of either.

as for the distance between east and west i hope it stays that way. for the most part i try to avoid bridging the gap wherever i am to the extent that i can.

LOL I was hoping you wouldn't get into that kind of gender reveal party lol.
Oh yes, there are times I wish the East and the West remind watertight .. I think I know what you mean there. Hehe

What is a punishable crime? To have the gender reveal party or to have the baby eventually choose it's own gender?

The punishable crime is the parents choosing the gender of the child they want to keep.
In Asian regions a male child is considered an asset while a female child is a liability.
A female child is often aborted by the parents - so abortion is also punishable by law if its not for strictly medical reason.
Hence there is a skewed balance between the genders over the centuries.

So legally they cannot actually choose, but if they do so and abandoned the female by whatever means- abortion; etc, then that is punishable.

So how did they get the idea that one is worth more than the other if the law says that both male and female are valuable. Culture or tradition/belief vs the law.

I thought that choosing to keep the male over the female baby was more to do with the now de-funct 1 child policy in China....?

Boys earn while girls need to be given in marriage.. which means you have to give the boy huge sums of money and stuff for the household. The thing from the past traditions and cultures carried forward by a few even today. Boy also bring money when they marry.. a vicious cycle.

So what, don't they know that girls are actually wayyyy better at working and bringing in money than the boys?

And handling work and home life too, whereas boys can only do one thing, but girls have been scientifically proven to be able to multi task wayyy better than boys.

Boys infact, really are the weaker species.

@eolianpariah well you missed nothing it’s so taking away the fun at the delivery but yes it’s done very many times

This was a very creative take on the image.

hope it will be a beautiful feathered baby

Let's hope for the best so @brittandjosie won't be disappointed.
I hope after all that gender reveal it doesn't turn out to be a girl.
We had a bird we called Wilma a parrot she grew up and showed a nice thick ring around her neck at the age of two.. we had to call her/ him Willie after that.. but he kinda didn't respond to his new name.
So this gender reveal at the egg stage could be a bit too early. hehe

The parrot story made me crack up 🤣🤣. You are absolutely right here. Premature guessing is not the best idea otherwise we shall have a Wilma/Willie situation at our hands 🤣🤣.

We need to be careful with birds. 😂😆

Hahahahh omg a she is a he well let me tell you number three was a gorgeous girl the first 16 week on my ultrasound and than she was a boy ! Yes and again with number 4 he wouldn’t show what he was hahahahha so yes I understand the parrot

Oh my goodness, you need to write about this. This would make an awesome story by itself. I just can't stop laughing. 😂🤣

Hahahah and the room was pink already 😬😬 maybe I should hahahah.
Oh and when I win something please don’t put it in my wallet but keep all that for next round. I am not here for the prizes and the contest can use the hive and points given out

Cute story.
So to have a gender reveal party does seem a bit over the top doesn't it...
So if they have a gender reveal, do they also have a baby shower? Or are they now the same thing?

No story can be over the top. in truth stories need to be over the top or they are not fun. A baby shower is another reason to party right? Baby showers are quite colorful here.

Yeah we have baby shower too, but not gender reveals....

And you're right any excuse to have a party! Especially these days too!
