So what you're saying is that the most plausible scenario is that she presented herself to him as entirely willing but that she was coerced into doing so? I tend to agree, and I suspect most people would, including Stallman.

> the most plausible scenario is that she presented herself to him as entirely willing but that she was coerced into doing so? What's missing here is some consideration about the judgement of Minsky. He was a smart and powerful person with a long life of experience. He has absolutely no excuse for what he did and he knew what he was doing. Nor does RMS have an excuse for what he said and now we're finally seeing that the aloof misanthrope schtick only goes so far. Good riddance.

  Agreed 100% regarding Minsky, but RMS wasn't defending Minsky's (alleged) creepery in an absolute sense, he was arguing against escalating one allegation against Minsky into another.
