For those who would courageously go down with the ship, what if you had a wife and a couple of kids at home?

I could give my life for a pretty lady. If she’s fat, I’m getting on that life boat. Real talk.


So some other dude could smash that? Sounds like the highest level of friend zone.

Equality is a bitch. Children first then for each bus or her own.

I would absolutely save children first. I think the reason women are included is because the children need their mothers.

I’d save my own wife and kids first then myself.

Someone else’s kids i would let go ahead of me. I couldn’t live with myself knowing a kids life ended because of my selfishness. Their wife? frick that.

I get the social construct and they probably figured women needed to be their for their kids to raise and nurture them and they could find another husband to be the breadwinner. Considering the times I’d argue it was more important to save the kids and their father as the father most likely made the money and paid the bills

But if the alpha dies, a beta will become the new alpha, thus weakening the pack. You do a disservice to the entire pack


I’m good with children first, but if we all about equality these days......

The more interesting question is why no women felt the need to step aside for their husbands or even give the courtesy to offer.

A lot of trashy people were on the titanic too, back then they were just smart enough to lock those down on the bottom floor rather than let them mingle with the upper crust

Amen.

And the men are expendable because potentially one man could repopulate a huge amount of territory. It takes a woman nine months to bear a child and many years thereafter to nurture it. So in order for the survival of the species, women and children first.
