> So women can participate without having to be asked out on dates?

What is so wrong about being asked by a man for a date? I (a man) have been asked lots of times for a date by women I worked with, some of them my superiors. Mostly I said "no", because I generally don't like mixing love life with work life, but the best relationship I've ever had was the time I said "yes". I don't see why RMS couldn't look for such a relationship.

In $CURRENT_YEAR it's considered harassment for a woman to be asked on a date by an insufficiently attractive man.

If Stallman looked like Chris Hemsworth, women would join the GNU Project for the opportunity to ask him on a date.

Actually, in a spooky way RMS _does_ look like Hemsworth in the last Avengers film.
