Not everyone is a fan of gender reveal parties. They often raise questions about outdated stereotypes, and some argue that they reinforce the idea that gender is determined before birth.
While these types of events can lead to massive debates about gender, it’s not often that they spark accusations of racism. But that’s exactly what happened at a combined gender reveal party, thanks to a cake-cutting moment that didn’t go quite as planned.
A woman has revealed how she was tasked with baking the cakes – one for her own boy, and another to announce her friend’s girl. Her friend was horrified to discover a “muddy brown” filling, and immediately accused the baker of being racist.
“Was I unintentionally racist?” That’s the question one woman is now asking herself…
