Straight from the Microsoft Xbox Live Terms of Service:
You agree that we may also discontinue your access to the Service if you do any of the following while connected to the Service:
Create a Gamertag , avatar or use text in other profile fields that may offend other members. This includes comments that look, sound like, stand for, hint at, abbreviate, or insinuate or relate to any of the following: profane words/phrases, topics or content of a sexual nature, hate speech (including but not limited to racial, ethnic, or religious slurs), illegal drugs/controlled substances, or illegal activities;

So yes, this woman should not have posted her sexuality on her profile, as it is a sexual topic and against the terms stated in the contract. Just like people who use the words gay, homo, or any other profane word, you are subject to banning because of the violation of their code of conduct.
This is not some "unjust" action done by MS to alienate the gay/lesbian community, just a simple rule because there are plenty of people who are offended by it. Just as you people are hating on those who are "homophobic" you are being the biggest hypocrite ever. There is no law that says we have to accept all sexual orientations. It is our free will to judge as we see fit. That does not mean that we will discriminate and hate on them, that just means we don't have to agree with it. Microsoft did not discriminate against this individual... it was a simple violation of their Terms of Use.

Oh please, if stating you are a lesbian classes as something of a sexual nature so should stating if you are a man or woman.
As for the bolded..are you serious? I suggest you go read up on anti-discrimination laws.

An argument could be made that reporting one's sexuality at all is sexual in nature. So a person should also be banned for proclaiming their heterosexuality.
Also Rubang was kidding.
