So, they disclose the gender of their first two children, but not the third. And they just draw more attention to the child's gender by doing so. It's sort of like saying, "Don't think about cake".

I am a man. I have a penis. I am gay. I am attracted to men. Men who have penises. My parents referred to me as a "boy" and a "man" and used masculine pronouns when referring to me. AND THAT WAS PERFECTLY FINE. These people just need to man up and stop referring to their own child as an "it". Idiots.
