So, I was trying to find an update on the Canadian couple raising a gender neutral child, it's been two years already since those threads LOL...
Ironically enough I found this article dated today on a different couple who have been doing this for 5 years---
It's a boy! Couple reveal sex of their 'gender neutral' kid after five years (long article)

A COUPLE who concealed the sex of their child and raised it as gender neutral for FIVE YEARS have finally revealed - its a BOY.
Beck Laxton, 46, and partner Kieran Cooper, 44, decided not to reveal baby Sashas gender in the hope it would let its real personality shine through.
They referred to it as The Infant and only allowed their child to play with gender-neutral toys in their television-free home.
During the first five years of his life, Sasha has alternated between girls and boys outfits, leaving friends, playmates and relatives guessing.
But Beck and Kieran have finally revealed his masculinity to the world after it became harder to conceal when Sasha started primary school.
I discovered later that Id been described as that loony woman who doesnt know whether her baby is a boy or a girl.
And I could never persuade anyone in the group to come round for coffee. They just thought I was mental.
Happy pic here---
