She isn't a hypocrite in spirit because she wasn't arguing about sexy pictures to begin with, only the spirit of sexism in which a lot of them were being posted or were surrounded by.

Ok, one more time...
The avatar in question isn't the point. Nor is the fact that said avatar isn't banned.
The point is, if she objects to the sexism being demonstrated in the YLYL thread, words, pictures, whatever, then she should remove her own personal demonstration of sexism. By continuing to have said demonstration, in fact defending it, while arguing against sexism IS in fact hypocritical.
I don't know how much more clear I can be.
It's fine if you disagree with me, and my argument. But to claim it reductive, petty or pointless is unfair.
