Gender reveal parties are stupid, narcissistic, selfish events that should be boycotted by anyone invited to one.

That being said a crop dusting plane should be more than capable of performing that stunt without coming apart.

The girl won't care.

Gender reveals are ridiculous, but I don't really see how it caused the crash.

These vacuous and narcissistic gender reveal parties should be outlawed because there have been so many deaths and serious accidents. Stupid straight people.

It was a gender reveal that burned down that forest right? Weird how much more deadly they seem to be than just a regular baby showers.

It’s kind of ironic how gender reveals have become a big thing at the same time as trans is exploding. How do they know that girl doesn’t want to be a boy?? What a time to be alive!

It would only be ironic if trans proponents did them. I doubt most of these parents have trans on their mind at all.

R5 Well it’s just like how body positivity is a thing and they’ve got fat mannequins in department stores and on women’s health magazines.

But yet corset culture is back with spanx, cinchers, waist trainers, etc.

But it all goes hand in hand because it’s all about visibility and attention whoring.

Gender reveals and transgenderism = the rise of social media

Here's a few to start with R6. Lethal stuff. Stupid straight people.

Feel free to google for yourself if you want more examples ok?

I actually think gender reveal parties may also be an unconscious side effect of a sense of foreboding of the future

They did seem to take off after the 2008 crisis

The gender reveal didn’t exactly cause the crash per se, but it really does nicely outline how crass and self-important “gender reveal” is.

I mean, who cares if your annoying crotch fruit is male or female?

Straight people thinking they’re special. Wait til she pushes out three screaming kids, has cankles and he’s on Grindr.

R14, I think it’s just another crass sign of late stage capitalism. Like modern weddings, which literally everyone hates but must be done to demonstrate conspicuous consumption.

A gay family member bought a baby via surrogacy and threw a gender reveal party so it’s not just stupid straight people. At least he has the sense to release balloons and not anything explosive or dangerous.

Here's what I was told by a pilot about that plane, (see below). Apparently it's obvious that the pilot was trying to dump the load then suddenly shoot up into a steep climb to put on a show, (i.e. "hot-dogging") - Apparently that isn't supposed to be done in those small planes. Poor pilot, was just trying to do his job and give those people a good show for what they paid for. I'm sure that, (hopefully) the young couple was oblivious to it. They were in the moment. Gender reveal things are idiotic but keep in mind that in Mexico, they're maybe a bit newer than they are here and in Canada, Britain, etc.. And Mexicans love gathering friends and family around for food and a good time when there's something to celebrate. I've spent a lot of time in Mexico. Family and growing a family is super important to them and very special. R.I.P. pilot guy. Bless you.

[quote]"Yea that airplane is only rated for 4 g’s. It dosn't take much to get over that when you snatch hard on one. They aren’t built for speed, just for carrying a load so they put as much lifting surface area on the wings as possible. (i.e., those were the normal wings for that type of plane) That plane is a Pawnee, it’s an older design with a piston engine. I’ve got a few hours in one early in my career. He pulled on it way too hard once he started dumping and shouldn't have done that at all, but especially shouldn't have done it so soon. Instead of tilting the nose forward once the weight started coming off, he pulled up and over-loaded the wings. He was trying to make a good show for the folks."

Gee, I wonder which thread would get more attention, the one that actually says what happened in the header and body, or the one which refers to Madonna’s shittiest song?

Whatever happened to dessert cakes filled with pink or blue cream?

That's so sad. Imagine growing up knowing some poor guy died revealing your gender. It's a bad omen if you ask me.

This disaster should inspire a revival of the Airport movie franchise.

"Airport 2023: It's a Girl!"

featuring the emotional hit song "Are There Pink Clouds in Heaven?"
