Zaya Wade Granted Name and Gender Change on Birth Certificate


Last year retired NBA player Dwyane Wade filed a legal petition to change his son Zion's name and gender on their birth certificate two years after she came out as transgender [click here if you missed that]. 

The motion has been granted...

From TMZ
According to new legal docs we obtained, an L.A. County judge just signed off on the new legal identity for Dwyane's transgender 15-year-old.
Zion Malachi Airamis Wade is now legally Zaya Malachi Airamis Wade ... and the judge also ruled in favor of her official gender change from male to female.

Zaya's mother, DWade's first wife Siovaugh Funches-Wade, objected to the change [click here if you missed that].

^That statement is ignorant and disrespectful. The only things changing in Zaya’s life are name and official gender. Congratulations.

10:39 You are very ignorant if you think they are not going to go through with the whole transformation. I spoke the truth and if it hurt your feelings then stay off gossip blogs.

I am so tired of hearing about this child and his supported mental illness.

May Dewayne "Ahab" Wade and Gabrielle "Jezebel" Union face the full fury of God's wrath.

I am of the belief that the world became darker when this all began…when he was twelve. God is not pleased…. These wicked people are a stench to His nostrils

@11:32 Like I said: ignorant and disrespectful. And absolutely uninformed. Total physical transformation is not how this works. That's your fantasy, not Zaya’s.

No disrespect to anyone BUT: a grape cannot be changed into an orange no matter how you slice it...

What Zaya won't be changing are pads & tampons.

I don't get why they change the birth certificate. Shouldn't it be a permanent document? I was born in Texas, but I identify as a Michigander because I was raised there my whole life. From baby to adult. Betcha they won't let me change that. It's mildly annoying. It's just become an instrument to lie to people. Your partner can never figure out you are not what you say you are. That is their business. What happened to trying to except yourself as you are feminine or masculine. I think if we focused on acceptance this wouldn't be so bad. Meanwhile you got other states banning drag shows, which is ridiculous. So you can change your birth certificate, but you can't wear a dress? I know that's in 2 different states...but it's still backwards. The U.S. doesn't know what we're doing.

It's sad actually. He is a biological male and will spend the rest of his life trying to make his body behave like a woman's. This is not the easy feat they pretend it is. So he will legally be in the women's locker rooms with a penis not understanding that he is violating women's only spaces. It's sad really that he'll only be able to impersonate women, he'll never actually be one. Being a woman is more than wearing wigs and modeling dresses. There is something so misogynistic about biological men demanding to be in women's spaces.

Yes, it’s sad that he’ll only be able to imitate women but for Zaya, it’s still better than being forced to live as a man. There’s no logic here; it’s what she feels and what her mind tells her. This issue has been going on since the beginning of history. It’s only freaking people out now because it’s out in the open instead of being the closeted family secret.

No big deal. It can be reversed if she changes her mind. The process of finding out who and what she wants to be is an experiment for everyone in life.

What this means for actual biological females is actually pretty scary

Sad. Just sad.

Zaya’s not sad so no one else needs to be sad for her.

Shame on the court system. This opens the door biological males to compete with biological female's. It's wrong.

Leave your god outta this. Most judgement hateful posters are around here. Until it happens to someone you know and love you have no idea how this works but you’re condemning and sending souls for this god of yours

The child has 'come out'.
We are still waiting for Dwyane to come out too.

At the end of the day its his father's responsibility to tell him that no matter how many wigs he wears, nails he presses on, slabs of lipstick, heals he breaks down, or even cuts off his winky he will still be a boy who grows into a winkyless man. Just a draining hole.

This is sad and Dwayne and Gabrielle will be blamed for this in the end. She should have wait until 18 to make any changes in name or physical body.

The Judge sided with the wealthier parent.

The judge sided with the only parent who has rights. The judge sided with commonly accepted practices for the situation. Any other result would have contradicted expert testimony. Money had nothing to do with it.

Nah i'm sorry this is just confusion! if you chop it off ok you can have your gender changed on ur ID, why not, but why would ur birth certificate change? you were born with it it's a fact it's part of your history as a trans person, that would be 100% misleading to anyone you want to share your life with. that they would have NO way to find the truth if you don't tell them. Official documents need to remain official. confusion red flags everywhere! mmmmmbye

Anyone can go to court at any time to change their name. That’s how Kanye West legally became Ye. Women get married and change their names. These are not unusual occurrences and they have nothing to do with being trans.

@Lynny I whole heartedly agree. I remember when I was a teenager and I thought everything I wanted or needed was an emergency. This could have waited, but the Devil came collecting. The parents will burn in everlasting hell for this sacrifice. Soon all young black men will be Zaya, Saucy Santana and Lil Nas X. Black people are so willing to sell their soul for white man validation and money.

Who cares?? The Wade family needs to stay in hiding for at least 6 months. They're overdoing the media like the Smith family was. And we saw the result of that at the Oscars last year.

I also think they should have waited until he was 18. What's the rush. SMDH

SO SAD! I feel sorry that Dwade and Gabby are pushing this change so hard.

Anonymous said...

This is all his parents doing I'm sure this child knew nothing about changing his gender.Since this was announced I've seen him in 2 ad campaigns. They've had this child all over social media at gay parades and putting out to the public something that I feel should've been kept private.

WAIT A MINUTE! ON THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE??

This is very sad, this is what happens when you sexualize a child. Seems to be the “norm”. What’s gonna happen when “she” decides “she” doesn’t want to be “female” anymore and wants to de-transition. The parents should be convicted of child abuse. Smfh
