She had good reason to get riled up about it; it was a rather sexist thing to put on an item of clothing, and I don't really think it was appropriate. Still, it got her annoyed / irritated, which is what "riled up" means.
Of course and accepted.

While the scenario is hypothetical, what you did write in the Freeman thread in no way shows similarity to what you wrote in here.
That means we can compare how you reacted in either context, and hence we can argue over the choice of terms.
That said (I've typed this fucking sentence twice and lost it to a fucking forum glitch), you've clarified your position and I agree with it.
