Hello Out readers!
Marlon Wayans is showing what it means to be a great father. The actor and comedian, who's son Kai came out as trans recently, did not mince words when he spoke out on another famous father of a trans child.
Wayans was talking to Shannon Sharpe on the Club Shay Shay podcast when he called out billionaire Elon Musk, saying the Tesla founder's behavior makes him want to drive his own Tesla "over a cliff.
Musk, who has a trans daughter, has repeatedly misgendered her, claimed his "son" was "killed by the woke mind virus," and now, has no relationship with his daughter other than her calling him out on social media.
"I don't like what he be saying about his trans child, that made me mad," Wayans said. "You don't treat them babies like that. You don't disown your baby. Love your child!"
"As hard as it was, I think that it’s not important. It’s important what you went through; the five steps of grief, but I think it’s important that you get to acceptance," he said. "And I’m proud to say it took me a week. And it felt like forever, it felt like five years."
"I'm proud that I got there in a week. I'm sad to say, some parents and some family members and some people, it will take them a lifetime, and they'll never get to that magical place that I'm at, which is just acceptance. It's till my child, man. That's my baby."
That's how you be a father.
Now, onto the news.
