Gender-reveal party creator fed up with 'toxic masculinity' after fireworks spark another wildfire

Article here. Excerpt:

'The woman credited with popularizing gender-reveal parties is once again condemning the over-the-top celebrations after a reveal-gone-wrong led to a massive wildfire in California, destroying more than 7,000 acres of forest so far.

But these pyrotechnic displays are a far cry from the trend blogger Jenna Karvunidis started in 2008, when she sliced into a cake to reveal pink frosting to signify her baby was going to be born a girl. And she’s had enough.

“Stop it. Stop having these stupid parties. For the love of God, stop burning things down to tell everyone about your kid's penis. No one cares but you,” Karvunidis wrote on her blog’s Facebook page Monday.

“Toxic masculinity is men thinking they need to explode something because simply enjoying a baby party is for sissies.”'

... that may have negative consequences seems to be "toxic masculinity" in action. Ugh.
