A transgender woman in Tennessee is asking the state to make a consistent ruling about her gender after a government office labeled her a male but police arrested her on a female-specific charge.
Andrea Jones of Morristown, Tenn., who had gender reassignment surgery and has been recognized by the Social Security office, decided to make a statement after her local Tennessee Department of Safety office refused to let her change the gender on her driver's license from male to female.
She walked out to the parking lot and removed her shirt, which she reasoned would be acceptable if the state recognized her as male.
Instead she was arrested for indecent exposure.

(Edit: I can't decide which I want more -- legalize the female chest, or force the DMV to allow gender-changes. "Both" seems like the obvious right answer.)
