I feel like the "push present" is the baby. I mean, you want a baby AND a Cartier bracelet or diamond necklace or whatever it is that women get? Women have been having babies since the beginning of humankind, obviously. What makes a woman think she is so special that she deserves a gift for giving birth to a kid, a completely natural thing that happens by choice 99% of the time? No offense to any woman including myself, but we are not special for giving birth. Sure, it's an amazing thing that happens, I won't take that away from us, but it is not special, as in unusual or deserving of extra presents.

What about the women years ago that pushed out a dozen, at home, with no drugs etc.? Did they get a "push" gift? Yeah, their gift was to get immediately back to taking care of the rest of the brood and the home.

Otherwise, who cares? Just don't have friends who do those, and stay with your own kind or don't get invited. People are happy to have a kid and if they want to celebrate, don't hate and be happy for them. At least it's not like a baby shower where you have to spend money on someone else's kid. The only thing I don't like about these is the binary; but if people are happy, be happy with them or leave them be.
really it sounds to me like you are the one who have issues with people's choices. i will celebrate whatever anyone wants to celebrate. if someone is born without genitals or with both genitals, then they can reveal that if they want. i dont see anything wrong with people seeing female or male genitalia and announcing that gender. gender is based on anatomy.

if an older person says, hey i want to be a woman even though i have a penis. whatever, ill call them what they want. but in my mind, they are still a guy until they chop that thing off. i dont see how you can get rid of the binary system because thats biology.

And can you imagine when we were just homo erectus?!? Oh my gosh! Females were so great, taking it all and shutting up about it. Those were better times for sure.

Huh. I didn't get a gift. I didn't doing any pushing, either.

Is there a "cut" gift for C-sections?

I remember when I first heard about gender parties. I went, "Bull ."

Then I read more about it and I went like this--> .

These gender reveal parties are a backlash against campaigning on the part of the gender-confused to try to brainwash everyone else into thinking that biological sex is all in the brain and that it's evil and wrong to raise children according to gender norms or even acknowledge that they exist. (In other words, it's "evil" to raise a girl to like pink decor and Barbie dolls, and it's "evil" to raise a boy to like blue things and action figures.)

So this is about people saying to the gender-confused, "F.U. You can talk all this nonsense about how there's no such thing as sex, can lobby retailers like Target into taking down gender-based signs designating boys and girls, can start demanding that no one gets referred to by gender-based pronouns, etc. We reject you and we reaffirm the reality of biological sex and gender norms. We will celebrate our baby being female. We will celebrate our baby being male."

It's also about parents reclaiming a sphere that lobbyists took away from them. Like I said earlier, the gender-confused lobby have been campaigning to take away these gender-based cultural rituals and norms from parents so they can't use them. So it's like, "Hey, you're gonna make the world increasingly asexual, you're going to start making it socially unacceptable to associate gender with color (blue/pink) or even call children by the correct pronouns, we'll bring that back in our own way with these parties."
