As easy and satisfying as it is to dunk on gender reveal parties in all their cringey, regressive, sexist glory We should probably have a broader conversation about how easy it is for random Americans to just buy a bunch of explosives to make whatever stupid fucking video

Gender reveal parties specifically seem to be the worst for this because it's American *parents* who are into this in the worst most destructive ways Like the only perk of parenthood, among all its myriad burdens, is getting to demand everyone pay attention to your parenting

And yeah as hilariously destructive as pyrotechnic gender reveal parties have been they're not as bad as all the shit these people do with their kids after they're actually born

When that whole thing with the YouTube assholes adopting, then getting rid of, a """"special needs"""" kid from China happened, for some reason it struck me as darkly funny when they kept claiming he had "Level-3 autism." Like his disability was a competition

I mean, of COURSE it was a competition, but it's such a bizarre, petty way to describe a NEUROTYPE. I'm picturing Bones McCoy holding a tricorder like, "JIM! His autism level is three! THREE, JIM!"
