| I don’t get it - unless it’s just for engagement on social media? But maybe I’m missing something |
| Yeah, I’m not certain, since we know the genders of their older kids. They don’t need to show their baby to the public but knowing their gender and even their name doesn’t seem like a big deal. But that’s just me. |

| They are waiting until the baby is old enough to decide. |
| Why does a couple you don't know owe anyone this information? Maybe their own families want some mystery just for fun. Is it relevant to their professional projects? No. I get it, they put things about their marriage and I guess their other kids out there, but...that doesn't mean they now owe a certain level of information about new kids too. |

Don't know who these people are, but they are rightly exploiting your unhealthy curiosity by teasing a reveal in the future. The person you should be ashamed of is YOU, for wanting to know in the first place. If you left these people alone, they wouldn't tease you. |

Can OP explain to me why it's any of your business?
Also why capitalize Ryan and Blake, but not r or l? |
| Who are Ryan and Blake and why are they famous enough for stranger to even care? |
| They’re probably embarrassed because it’s a 4th girl. They are probably going to try again for a boy soon. |
| Attention seeking |
| Am chuckling at the people who are so above it all that they don't know who Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds are but are in the entertainment and pop culture forum |
| Maybe the child was born intersex and they haven't decided which way to go yet. |
| Didn’t they also keep their other kids gender from the public? |
| I think it’s a little odd, but it’s their family. At some point, refusing to say creates more buzz than just saying “yeah, we just had little Larlo last month”. It becomes a secret to ferret out, as this is kind of basic information that no one truly cares about, but it’s just basic conversation, so to speak. You never ever see the Clooney kids, for example, but they said they were twins, have the names, and that is that. |
I hate responses like this. *Obviously* they owe us nothing - and we’re not even trying to figure out the gender (not do I personally GAF). This is just a thread hypothesizing why a couple that very much courts attention would withhold something like gender, which is not typically a private matter. Of COURSE they’re entitled not to share it, that’s beside the point. |
