Gender reveal parties are a relatively new phenomenon, first kicking off in the late 2000s as a popular way for expecting couples to announce the gender of their baby with friends and family members. Generally, gender reveal parties will involve an activity that discloses the baby\u2019s gender. Popular activities include popping balloons with pink or blue-colored powder inside, shooting off color-coded confetti cannons, or even slicing a color-coded cake. Although gender reveals are supposed to be happy occasions, some parents can\u2019t help but show their disappointment when the baby isn\u2019t the gender they wanted\u2026 which is what many commenters thought happened at the latest gender reveal party to go viral online. TikTok couple sparks backlash after \u201cdisappointment\u201d over gender reveal On September 9, TikTok user and dad-to-be Aidan Payne uploaded footage from his gender reveal with his partner, who was wearing a blue dress. To reveal the gender of their baby, Aidan used a paint sprayer that would shoot out either pink or blue \u2014 and it looks like the couple is expecting a girl. However, commenters don\u2019t think the parents looked very happy about this news. The mom instantly looked away from the pink paint with a seemingly annoyed look on her face, while Aidan kept painting away at the wall. Commenters were convinced that this couple isn\u2019t actually happy about having a girl, with some even speculating that they aren\u2019t too fond of each other, either. \u201cThe eye roll\u2026the arms crossed\u2026 the disappointment\u2026 I\u2019m not crying, you are,\u201d one viewer wrote. \u201cIt\u2019s like they don\u2019t even know each other,\u201d another said. \u201cThe visible disappointment on moms face is just so so heartwarming,\u201d another sarcastically joked. \u201cShe\u2019s really gonna love that little girl!\u201d However, Aidan went on to dispel any rumors that they weren\u2019t an affectionate couple, uploading another video from the party that showed him embracing his partner after the big reveal. This is just the latest gender reveal to spark backlash online after a woman popped off on her partner for \u201cruining\u201d their announcement at a party back in July. That\u2019s not all; gender reveal parties can also become deadly, as in the case of a pilot who died after their plane crashed in an over-the-top reveal gone horribly wrong.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Parents spark outrage over \u201cdisappointed\u201d reaction to gender reveal TikTok: aidanpayne0A couple has sparked outrage over their \u201cdisappointed\u201d reaction to their gender reveal in a viral TikTok clip.
