How is that hypocrisy? Rand was free to choose whom to associate with. That was an important part of her philosophy. She was free to choose not to associate with anyone who disagreed with her.

Quite the reverse, in fact. One of the most common criticisms leveled against her is her position on feminist issues. She believed that one of the most defining characteristics of the ideal woman was her-worship of the ideal man.
