I don't think the paint's the problem, might be more to do with, y'know, terrifying a wee animal for likes

That's not what was stated 🤷‍♂️. This entire article is scooped at this particular issue and speaks with ambiguity about toxic and permanent prints. We terrify animals for all sorts of reasons which I disagree with.

This is just honing in on gender reveals because progressives hate them and it'll generate clicks.
