The new kind of sex party sweeping the US

[Steveg]

'We're having a sex party. We'd be delighted if you could come." Well, that got your attention, didn't it? But don't be surprised if you receive just such an invitation soon, as yet another Born-in-the-USA trend looks set to sweep our impressionable nation.


…….expectant couples are holding parties for friends and family so that they can reveal the sex of their baby. If that wasn't self-indulgent and narcissistic enough for you, the twist is that the couple don't even know themselves.


The centrepiece of the party is the opening of an envelope to reveal a note written by the ultrasound operator informing the couple of their baby's sex. A round of applause and much hugging follows, accompanied by the popping of corks and a chorus of "Ah, bless" and "It's so much better having a [insert revealed sex here] first."

I hope the author of this article is being playfully sarcastic, because I laughed out loud when I read the last two sentences

Britain, we still have a chance to repel the advances of such an abomination: let's unite in ignoring this trend. Surely it's time to have a "No More Gratuitous Parties" party.

As far as I know they are not the trend here either, actually this is the first time I have heard of it

We have more sense.

We don't deep fry beer either.
