Well, it's a fact that there are two very different pictures of RMS by different people who know him personally. Where does the truth lie? In between? Some of both? Who knows.

Few people are all good or all bad. It's entirely possible for RMS to have made wonderful contributions to the Free Software movement while at the same time being somewhat creepy to women. The problem is that once you reach a certain level of fame and start representing an organization, your personal failings become unacceptable.
