Gender reveal parties are fun, but they can also be disappointing.

If you had your heart set on having a child of a specific gender, would you throw a gender reveal party and chance looking disappointed in front of your friends, or would you try to look excited no matter what?

This guy’s wife got upset at her sister’s reaction at a gender reveal party, but his comments made the situation even worse.

AITA For Pointing out my wife acted similar after my SIL’s gender reveal?

So, my wife’s sister is pregnant. She had a gender reveal last Saturday. This is her second baby.

Second baby is a boy, first kid is a girl.

SIL was kind of disappointed (or surprised, I guess?) about having a boy but, I wouldn’t say mad.

My wife only has sisters so SIL probably didn’t imagine herself raising a boy.

That’s INSANE!

So anyways right, on the ride back home, my wife was talking about how it was “Weird” her sister was so visibly disappointed when the blue came out, but like, she acted the same.

She got over it after like a day (or a week) but she still was. We have two daughters, she was hoping for a boy and a girl.

UH OH…

She was like, “We’re not talking about me though.”

And I said “Just pointing it out.”

And she responded “You always do that though.”

Kind of just admired the air for the rest of the car ride.

AITA?

YIKES! That’s kind of weird!

Why can’t she just admit she had the same reaction?

Let’s find out what people on Reddit think about this one.
