Co-Worker shower
So a co-worker wants to throw me a work pot luck/shower. Her question to me was if she should invite everyone, male and female, in the office or just. I dont know how to answer that. Any ideas?

Re: Co-Worker shower
What is standard at your office? Dept or company wide? I think that is the question you should be asking yourself, because what is done at my office or someone else's may not be standard or acceptable for yours, KWIM?
At my office we do a company wide email inviting everyone. Usually 20-30 people show up out of 85 on staff. They are always done during work hours.

DS-IUI #1-4 BFN IVF #1 - BFP! It's a boy!!!
An email gets sent to everyone in the department (around 100 people). Usually about 20-30 show up. I usually just go to the ones where I know the person well enough to want to spend $30 on a gift.
after anovulatory diagnosis and TTC for 1 1/2yrs with several medicated cycles and one chemical pregnancy, we have our first bundle of joy!

I don't take one single minute for granted.
It may not hurt to ask management to be on the safe side. They may have issues with excluding people due to gender. And like others have said, many of the men probably won't show up anyway.
Pretty much everyone shows up for ours because there is always food. The mother-to-be's department is the host. So those employees chip in for food and decorations but no one else does.
Quite a few men come to ours...but we also throw showers for dads to be....so I guess they feel a bit obligated!
