When I saw the thread title, I assumed that someone was killed at some type of celebration of a transgender person reaching a milestone, like coming out publicly. The idea of having a party to announce an unborn child's gender, is very foreign to me, and kinda disturbing.

And I got this
“ Sex, Not Gender...
It should be called a “sex-reveal party.” Though not as Pinterest-worthy, this name is much more accurate. Sex is based on anatomy, while a person’s gender identity may or may not match the sex they were assigned at birth. Gender identity develops over time, and isn’t something a doctor can determine on an ultrasound.”
May we live in interesting times.

My response to that is shut the fuck up!
But these parties are pretty revolting however, for other reasons.

Our family used to have a 4th of July re-union up in Humboldt at the family homestead. One of the "rituals" was "firing the anvil", where you put a bunch of powder (I never knew if it was gunpowder or some kind of blasting powder because I was a little kid) between a sitting anvil and one turned upside down on it. Light the appropriately long fuse and "see" how far the anvil flies. It was pretty stupid but hey, tradition. Glad nobody ever got hurt.....Years later, SCTV had those guys who liked to blow things up and it pretty much summed up the golly-geewhiz let's blow stuff up mentality.
And yes, I kept thinking somebody got killed for changing gender by bigoted somebody when I saw thread title.

Anvils are one thing, big and heavy so you don't want one landing on you, but they are also so solid that you won't have pieces blowing off of them, so not nearly retarded as other metal shapes that people like to blow up like piping.
When I was a kid, we used to launch cans (hole in bottom, in 1/2 inch of water to form a seal) with fire crackers to see how high we could get them, usually 30-40 feet up. :laughing

Seriously, WGAF what the gender of someone else's kid is going to be.

Three words: coat hangers, sparklers. 4th of July when everything is dry. Good thing we got to the fire we started in time.
Also, I am such a geezer that I remember shooting kitchen matches out of my BB Gun. Such a baaaaad idea.

lofting anvils into the air has been around a lot longer than gender reveals, and likely pipe bombs

It's part of the Look At Me! mentality.
I get that it's a big event for expecting parents (for their first child), but the level of importance outside of the immediate family is an inverse asymptotic curve.
Probably started along with the 'we are pregnant' trend.

Impressive that it was almost straight up and down from where it started
