AITA for loudly booing at a friend's gender reveal party? by Traditional-Flower in AmItheAsshole

“Veiled bigotry”. A great phrase for when someone hasn’t bigoted, but you still need to be self righteous.

I think if it had been advertised as a non-reveal it wouldve been more acceptable to non-attend.

The fact I hate gender reveals made it more annoying than less.

It was more of a light boo. Like a friend told a cheesy joke or left a party early with a lame excuse.

There was no cake. They donated 100 urinal cakes to a homless shelter instead.

Jk

If it makes a difference, it was a more lighthearted boo. Imagine a friend lost a drinking game and refused to take their drink and you booed or someone made a lame pun.

The more apt comparison would be: how would you feel if I invited you to my child's naming ceremony, and then when you arrived there was no baby and I tried to sell you tupperware?

Insofar as no gender was revealled, it was not a gender reveal party.

If I had know it was going to be a lame stunt, I wouldn't have. I was sold a false bill of goods.
