Gender Reveal
There are so many old wives’ tales out there about how to figure out the gender of a baby while the mother is still pregnant. Some people believe that what the expectant mother is craving is a way to tell. Some people even do little rituals like hanging a ring over her belly.
But this gender-related myth seems a little bit misogynistic don’t you think? What does the baby’s gender have to do with whether the mother needed to mature or needed love? Ideally, if a woman is bringing a baby into the world, she is mature enough for it and surrounded by love regardless.
