Did you know that more women than children were saved in the lifeboats when the titanic sank? Ultimately it comes down to survival of the fittest and men are beginning to become tired of being disposable for the sake of others surviving. Choosing to put ones own life first is not cowardly, it's self preservation, something that has been conditioned out of men for generations when women and children are in danger however, the tide is now changing. Do you truly believe that in cases where children are not present, women should still be given priority? Also why should a mother be given priority over a father?
Until a man can give birth and breast feed a baby, I'll give priority to women and children in catastrophes.
I understand your reasoning however, I would not self sacrifice for women or children. I think asking any man to do that is expecting too much
Seems you look at it from a supposed to be rational point of view. OK, put emotions aside, let's be rational: "Are you sure that it is beneficial for the survival of human kind to promote the increasing overpopulation of the planet?" :-)
I see it like this: every individual has an intrinsic value independently from his (or her) ability to produce descendants or not. According to your logic one had to save gays an old people last ... What would you answer?
Children yes, women no.
