  1. Re:Pot calling kettle black... on Thus Spake Stallman · · Score: 1
    As a side note, when RMS spoke in Cincinnati, he spoke at the beginning of his speach spoke of how women are unfairly repressed both professionally and by the institution of marriage. Half way through the speach, when he was handing out M&M's to the audience, when he got to an attractive woman he made her eat them out of his hand if she wanted them, while everyone else got to grab them from the bag. The whole thing made me feel very uncomfortable, I can't imagine how she felt.

    I would guess either flattered or disgusted, depending on how she views rms, but not repressed.

    This kind of behaviour would get you fired under existing sexual harrasment guidelines in any US company.

    It would be harrasment if he had power over her somehow, eg. could hurt her career/social relations or could beat her up. I don't think depriving a grown up person of an M would qualify.

    This 'harrasment' where one can't control the other is commonly known as 'flirt', I think.
