Marlon Wayans confesses to hypnotizing his transgender child in an effort to halt the procedure

Marlon Wayans admits to trying to stop the process by hypnotizing his transgender child.

Marlon Wayans acknowledges that he tried to hypnotize his child in an effort to prevent them from transitioning. The comedian talked candidly about his connection with his son Kai and what it was like for him when they first started their journey in an interview with Neal Brennan.

The Good Grief performer explained that he found it hard to accept and did all within his parental authority to stop Kai from transitioning. “For me, you’re trying to hang on and you want this thing in your head, you want normalcy, grandchildren, and this was happening when they were 22, 23.” However, it’s not my fault, and since this is their life, they have to be content,” Wayans said. “And if they choose to do this, alter this, or do anything else they want to do… It is not my responsibility to discipline my child. I will therefore love my child. Forever. 

Marlon said, “Oh, of course,” when the reporter questioned the comedian whether they had ever tried to “stop” them from transitioning. He laughed and remarked, “I tried to hypnotize that bih.” “No, wait, hold on, wait—” I said. I also objected to it. I’m not proud to say that. When I reflect on those deeds, I feel guilty. It only took me a week to be forced to look in the mirror, and I was mortified. I’ll add that I’ve reached a lovely point of acceptance, and I offer up prayers for many parents, relatives, and individuals in general. We don’t have the right to judge others; life is life, dude.

If the hypnotizing didn’t work, Neal Brennan asked Marlon what strategy he had in place to halt Kai’s metamorphosis. Wayans acknowledged that he would “take allowance” in order to “impose sanctions.” But that was an ineffective strategy.

Marlon went on to discuss the bond he formed with his child as they transitioned to a transgender identity. He promised to love them without conditions, and he succeeded in doing so, but with the caveat that “I’m a father first, I’m a comedian second, and those two clash.”

“I told my kid, ‘I’m going to make jokes, ni**a.'” and they trust that I will tell a fantastic narrative, and they know my heart. I am eager for others to see it.
