​Concerning Tyjanae Morre, the transgendered woman whose attempt to use a women's restroom in the downtown library got her tossed into the men's jail, and briefly threw city government into confusion, Mayor Annise Parker's office says the "misunderstanding" has been cleared up.

Though Moore went on to plead guilty (in order, it was said, to get out of jail), the mayor later described the arrest as "not about behavior" but about the officer's apparent misunderstanding of an executive order she issued last spring, forbidding any city employee from impeding access "by any employee or member of the public to a city restroom facility that is consistent with and appropriate to that person's expression of gender identity."
