    The dead ones still earned more than the women.

    Education is extremely important.

      The patriarchy was so terrible men even thought they were more worthy of freezing to death than women.

        73% of all women from every class survived the sinking of the Titanic.

        Only 19% of men survived.

        Speaking of paleolithic emotions and medieval institutions. It's no wonder why young men might be looking around and wondering about these sorts of attitudes.

        Especially when we are harangued about being sexists and patriarchs.

              Marin County I get. But the Tetons and parts of western Colorado? An artifact due to low population density I suppose.

                    Well, it isn't the Visible V8, but still pretty cool.

                            Seems an ignominious end for such a notable ship.
