Doesn't really matter. The moment the people hear it's male or female, determines how people will treat the baby. Put a baby boy in pink and don't tell people, and people will talk to him like they would to a girl.

Whether or not people accept the small chance that the kid turns out transgender, depends on their personal views. I doubt a gebder reveal party is significant. Besides, it's a party for the parents to be. Not the baby.

I absolutely get that, but I thought, perhaps making such a big deal out of the baby's sex might set some large expectations pretty early on. Not only in the parents' minds, but all the family that attends.
