Why are women and children saved first if a ship goes down?

males instinctually understand hypergamy and altruistically cleanse themselves from the dating scene, or at least they used to

>>40118835 (OP)
they have a lower chance of dying that way

>>40118835 (OP)
old-fashioned british manners basically. it was seen as the chivalrous thing to do so it caught on

>>40118835 (OP)
terfs protecting themselves and the children they need to brainwash

>>40118835 (OP)
They're seen as less able to fend for themselves so it's noble to sacrifice yourself to help them, or at least to prioritize your own survival as secondary to helping them.

>>40118835 (OP)
Because they're less stronger than males.

>>40118885
males are willing to sacrifice their own interests to make females happy?

>>40118835 (OP)
holdover from ancient times when a lot of women dying would mean your tribe would get wiped out

there is absolutely no reason for men to sacrifice themselves for strangers just because theyre women or children, in modern times, and anyone saying otherwise is a misandrist

>>40118835 (OP)
how is this lesbian gay bisexual or transgender

>>40118941
yes, as they should

>>40118960
men want to be women, this isn't really a gay place, it's mostly men wanting to be women, maybe examining how women are treated could help us better understand the motivation of a man wanting to be a woman

>source: a fucking James Cameron film

>>40118980
>dude that never happened otherwise

>>40118835 (OP)
It's because women and children are smaller and cuter. There is no other reason, I mean what other reason could there possibly be?

>>40118989
but we value their lives more
why is a woman's life worth more than a man's life?

>>40118835 (OP)
Because without that rule, in panic,

1. all men would leave at first (cause they can physically) and women and kids.
2. Also some men leaving later may help older people or kids to leave safe and such stuff
3. The natural instinct to help weaker person in case of an emergency (which might become overridden in panic-mode) is kept working this way

Alison George: Where does the notion arise that, when a ship sinks, women and children come first?
Mikael Elinder: It appears to have started when the HMS Birkenhead ran aground off South Africa in 1852, but the notion became widespread after the sinking of the Titanic in 1912. The captain explicitly issued an order for women and children to be saved first. As a result, the survival rate for women was three times higher than for men.

>>40119194
Um because a woman is smaller and cuter? I already said that... I really can't think of any other reason at all...

>>40119245
Yeah, and in the Titanic case, which is the only case, it's because the men tried to flee first until the captain threatened them or some shit.
So it's literally just "men are such humongous piles of dog shit they have to be told not to step on kids to save their lives"
I won't answer to your coming moid incel rage jsyk

>>40119296
why do men use violence against each other to protect women?

>>40118835 (OP)
First of all, the children part is obvious and probably doesn’t even merit articulation, but basically they have the most future, are the most innocent, and need the most protection.
With women it’s a little more complicated and a lot of the logic is rooted in patriarchal misogy/misandry chivalrous paradigm. To start with, any woman within a certain age range could possibly be pregnant, and it would be a genuinely actually abhorrent decision to not consider a pregnant woman a priority in a lifeboat scenario. A lot of other justifications are rooted in antiquated reductive ideals, though, like considering the women as maternal home-keepers and baby factories. They were also at times considered more innocent by matter of having less agency than men. That, of course, places men in the unenviable position to make the sacrifice of being last in the lifeboat scenario, despite the fact that many of the lifeboats of the Titanic left before reaching capacity. You could say that the individual man’s life was considered less valuable than the woman’s, and that is to some degree true, but they were also considered to have more autonomy in kind and thus more capable of bravely sacrificing themselves in the face of disaster.
I think the point that OP is insinuating at by posing this question is that it’s unjust how women are more highly valued in our society, and to some extent that’s true. However it’s also missing the bigger picture. Patriarchal cisheteronormativity is reductive of both men’s and women’s values, and each side of that false dichotomy is encouraged to view the other as privileged. I believe that our system is truly patriarchal at the very highest of society, but each binary cis gender reaps distinct privileges and suffers distinct discrimination in the baser classes. Thus, women don’t really see how hard life is for men, and the same is true of men towards women. We’re only given enough perspective to envy the other.

>>40118835 (OP)
you that literally doesnt happens right? it happened on titanic and in one german boat. the rest of times it doesnt happen

>>40119761
>german
british*
anyway, the rule is: children, eldery and injured people first, men and women go together

>>40119761
it happens all the time

>>40119827
it doesnt? last time it happened as a rule was a 2011 restaurant boat in kentucky

Women are inherently more valuable to a tribe due to the fact that they give birth. One man can impregnate 1,000 women, same can’t be said for the reverse.

All humans instinctively understand this which is why women are assumed to be nicer and sweeter than men, and are always protected no matter what.

>>40119231
cishons are the most powerful race

>>40118835 (OP)
Because women have kids and kids are your future. So after a man has kids he is worthless. Also, cutting off your dick would just shorten the time and when you actually had worth. Trannies are just men with no worth.

>>40120110
so female privilege is real ?

>>40118835 (OP)
So men can think of a solution in silence

>>40120147
Why can't women shut the fuck up?

>>40120129
Yes. But only in specific circumstances. They’re always given the benefit of the doubt and are, of course, more valuable in dangerous situations like war or a burning building. But That’s where their privilege ends though.

Men still run things cuz they are assumed to be more capable and are obviously physically stronger.

a featus isn't a concious being that's worth being given moral consideration

misandry is just baked right into society, most die never having questioned it at all

Men want to fuck them more

>>40121354
maybe men want to fuck each other, but women won't allow it

Continuation of the species, and if anyone was going to survive the event between a man, woman, and child...
It would be the man.

>>40121721
all you need is one womb to continue

>>40122200
1 womb can carry (on average) 1 child every 9 months and is prone to issues such as miscarriage, stillbirth, etc.
Ideally 5 men and 50 women so they don't all become inbred.

>>40122245
2 women then
save the healthiest ones and drown the others
>1 child every 9 months
in 11 years a female child can start breeding new ones

>>40118835 (OP)

So the remaining men can all have gay orgies while they drown and get eaten by hagfish

>>40122356
All you have to do is tie up a woman, remove her tongue, and have a turkey baster ready, and you can repopulate civilization with one womb and her spawn.
