I don't really have an opinion about whether women should go first, other then to say that you probably shouldn't do this if it any way slows down the queuing process. Better to save more people then to stress about what gender they are.
Dogs, of course, will heroically stay behind.

The woman and children argument is so worn out and dead.
Look how COVID vaccines are being distributed. That’s how you distribute rescue assets when you can’t otherwise evenly distribute.
Vulnerable people and essential services workers first. Then woman infants and children along with elderly. Then general population.

Oh please, nobody in this thread knows if they'd actually lay down your life to save someone else since they've most likely never been faced with that choice. Anybody who claims they would is just running their mouth to look good because they know they'll never have to back it up. Anyone who claims they'd be brave or heroic in a situation they've never faced is either lying to make themselves look good, or delusional. One of my personal favorite questions to ask people like that. "If you would really run into a burning building to save a child, why aren't you a firefighter?"

I be someone who doesn't have time for pointless posturing by people trying to stroke their own egos. IF you're so brave and moral, then prove it. Stop talking and do something.

Ye be asking why people, not all become firefighters if they would be willing to do a good thing.
Perhaps if you consider the fact that not everyone is cut out for the work, because their bodies are very willing to gain fat at the slightest inclination. Perhaps if you consider not every place in the world needs so many firefighters.
If ye don't have time for pointless posturing and such perhaps stop trying to be pointless posturing or asking asinine questions?

If you're not capable of being a firefighter you're most likely not capable of rescuing someone from a burning building. So stop running your mouth to look good. I'll stop asking "asinine questions" when asinine idiots stop spewing hot and fresh bull manure about how brave and moral they are, then never do anything to back it up. Most real heroes don't have time for mouth running, they let their resume speak for itself. Don't say things you aren't willing to prove, I don't see why that's difficult.

Nobody is here saying that mate except for you.
I'm not making me self look good my lad, you are simply making yourself look bad to be appearing smart and all that... or a coward really.
I am not in needing of be proving myself to people on the internet, let alone an edgelord.

That's literally what you're doing when you claim to know how you'd respond to a situation you've never been in.
