His actor parents are well known activists and Stephen Ira Beatty seems determined to follow in their footsteps.
The eldest child of Warren Beatty and Annette Bening, who revealed he was transgender at the age of 14, appears in a new public service announcement (PSA) urging New York to change its Medicaid regulation which excludes transgender people from accessing healthcare.
Stephen, 21, appears confident and informed as he speaks about the problem, saying: ‘I grew up outside of New York, but I've always known I've wanted to move here for the city's vibrant artistic community.
‘As a trans person, I would hope that I'd be welcomed but many trans people aren't because we don't have the basic healthcare coverage we need to survive.’
The video has been produced by GLAAD and the Sylvia Rivera Law Project and features a number of transgender people along with the mother of a transgender woman.
Medicaid is the United States health programme for families and individuals with low income and resources. This new PSA is opposing the New York State Medicaid which specifically excludes transgender people from accessing care.
New York Governor Andrew Cuomo and New York State Health Commissioner Nirav Shah are being called upon to overturn the regulation....

Gross and demented.
can some please explain what the hell is a “transgender”?? i know what a transexual is, i know what a transvestite is- what is a “transgender”???
its almost like McDonalds coming out with a new flavor of milkshake with all these effing freaks....
Sure, we are a civilization in decline. But there are allot of laughs to be had.
“He” is their disordered and troubled daughter.
Would it be medically unacceptable to sew udders on the abdomen of a woman who thought she was a cow?
Then why is this acceptable?

From the article, this is how Beatty described himself:
He describes himself in his blog by saying: ‘I’m an activist and a writer; I live in Yonkers, NY, where I’m a junior at Sarah Lawrence College. We don’t do majors, but I study poetry, literature, queer studies, and critical theory. I’m a gay trans man for whom both identities are equally important, a femme-inist, and a white person trying to do anti-racist work (sic).’
LOL! Thanks for clearing that up!
The trick is to remember that “transgender” flips the gender of the suffix.
A transgender man is biologically a woman that dresses and identifies as a man.
A transgender woman is biologically a man that dresses and identifies as a woman.
Sounds like a real loser good thing for her, him the parents are rich.
he/she’s a mixed up child who has no idea of what she is or what she wants.
Does that mean “he” only likes other “trans men”? A “homosexual male ‘trapped’ in a lesbian female’s body”? Our world is so psychotic and sick.
Gay trans man?
So she believes herself to be a guy but likes having sex with other guys. So, a woman that likes men but prefers to be a guy herself?
I’m a fairly open-minded person but c’mon, is this just an effort to be as confusing as possible?
Whatever.
Viewing the photo, I had no idea.
” Gay Trans Man”, eh?
Fifty years ago that might have been close to the name of a sweater-wearing folk song quartet: The Gay Transmen.
“Does that mean “he” only likes other “trans men”? A “homosexual male ‘trapped’ in a lesbian female’s body”? Our world is so psychotic and sick.”
I’ll need to get out the flow chart for that.
There, that makes more sense...........
Trans-fats= bad
What a screwed up planet We live on.
Mr. Scott, one to beam up, and hurry!

Hollywood parents produce some screwed up kids.
Actors during the golden age of Hollywood, the 30s-50s, would have slapped their modern counterparts silly if they saw what they are doing today.
When I was a normal straight regular male in my 20s and 30s without healthcare, I was often not welcomed into various situations once it was discovered I did not have healthcare, too. People can be so cruel.
"No health care? Get out of my tire store you ruffian!"
