Members Pine Charles Posted March 30, 2007 Members Share Posted March 30, 2007 Let’s say the two of them got married. Since Zoe is technically still a man and hasn’t gone under the knife, a marriage between them would be legal, correct? If they did get married, who do you think would change their last name? Would it be 'Bianca Luper' or 'Zoe Montgomery'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted March 30, 2007 Members Share Posted March 30, 2007 Zoe is legally a man so yes a marriage between them should be legal. They could always get a hyphonated name like Luper-Montgomery or vice versa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Pine Charles Posted March 30, 2007 Author Members Share Posted March 30, 2007 So if Zoe got surgery, a marriage wouldn’t be legal even though she was born a man? That's sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted March 30, 2007 Members Share Posted March 30, 2007 Im no law major but I would think that if regardless of whether Zoe had surgery, (s)he is still legally a man. Its a man that is linked to the social security number (and birth certificate) and that is what identifies you in this country. Changing the outside appearance doesnt change that fact Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Target Demo Posted March 30, 2007 Members Share Posted March 30, 2007 They could get married. And it would make most lesbian viewers scream with outrage if Bianca married Zarfoey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rsmith2k2 Posted March 30, 2007 Members Share Posted March 30, 2007 Plus it just illustrates that Zoe and Bianca are not a lesbian couple, truly (at least not at the stage of Zoe's transition). Bianca and Zoe can get legally married as a heterosexual couple in the eyes of the law, Bianca and Lena or Maggie...in one state. Gay Marriage is constitutionally forbidden in most states of this union. So, yes...agree with you Target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
