The protocol of "Women and children first" has never been official naval policy for any nation, and came under heavy criticism with the sinking of the Titanic. The liner crew took this so literally, the early lifeboats were launched with nothing but women and children. Which meant no one was strong enough on board to actually work the oars in the lifeboats. Even to get them out of the way so the next lifeboat could be launched.

It was just another fcuk up in the long chain of fcuk ups that was the Titanic sinking.

Hahaha, that's both fucking idiotic and hilarious.
