Why oh why
is this trend so alive
and rocking a high
when head to toe it's drenched
in shameless ignorance?
Are you still that stupid
to be unaware that gender and sex
are two distinct human components?
So, why don't you try
and try real hard
to shut up the squeals
at the sight of your stereotypical
Pinks and the Teals.
For rationality's sake,
Fuck your gender reveals
& free from your same ol' tired
heteronormative narratives,
let the poor kid be just a kid.

That last line’s the killer. Brilliant!

Usually not a lot riles me up but this kind of poisonous trend that perpetuates traditional gender norms should be challenged by everyone who wants society to champion for the rights of LGBTQIA+ people and make it free from stereotypical biases against both men and women. Pink/blue, wheel/heel, rifle/ruffle… What kind of parochial mentality is this? We, ourselves, impose bigoted limits on our children, clip their wings and restrict them within these cardboard cutouts of what it means to be a man or a woman and then sit back, cross our fingers, hoping that world will change for the better someday.
Anyway, thank you for reading, Jen. Glad you feel the same. 🙂

I do! “Love is Love!” and all of us are human. It’s always been strange to me to stereotype in any way. Way to go! Great post! Thank you. ❤🌻❤🌻
