If @souljaboy had a career, he could get cancelled for this type of slander. Luckily, he aint been relevant since 2007, and Hey @souljaboy my child had top surgery and still has more chest than you.Later in his We In Miami sit-down, Wayans praised fellow parents Dwyane Wade and Gabriel Union for their public support of their own trans kid, Zaya Wade.I think when youve gone through the process, everyone can try and judge, but until youre a parent of a trans child, take a seat, he said.You dont know what youre talking about. You dont understand what we struggle with. Its not instant acceptance, but I call them evolved because thats what youre supposed to do, Wayans said of Wade and Union.Youre supposed to align yourself with your children because you want your children ultimately to be happy and try to make them happy and comfortable in their skin because you want them to live a nice, happy life.Showing up for their childand being a great example for Black people is something hes emulated, Wayans said.Black family is important, he added. And we need more heroes like that.Subscribe to theLGBTQ Nation newsletterand be the first to know about the latest headlines shaping LGBTQ+ communities worldwide.
