When on the titanic if you were a female there was a rule, the rule was called the "women and children only" when the boat was sinking, the people on board made sure that the women got on the lifeboats first. Most men would wait for all the women to be on the life boats before they had got onto one. over half of the women in third class died with the boat.

At the time the boat was sinking, the men that were at the starboard were by the life boats, but they decided to remain behind. the reason the men stayed behind because, most men on the boat would let the women and children get on the lifeboats first. One first class passenger that tried to board the life boat with his wife and child, named John Jacob Astor was refused because, the women and children were first to board the lifeboats. and adult male in second class had an 8% chance of surviving.without supporting evidence, it was hard to say that men gave up their seats for women in steerage. The men that were staying on the steerage, that got to the lifeboats made it on, only by jumping from the boat to the lifeboats, before the ship had sunk.



There were around 700 people on the Titanic from third class. The tickets cost between £3 and £8. The third class was below the waterline in the bottom. There was only two bathtubs, one for men and one for women. Whenever the ship hit the iceberg the crew was too busy saving the first and second class, and since the third class was below the waterline so it hit them first. There also was no life boats dedicated to the third class. Majority of men were on the titanic for lower class. Only 178 third c lass passengers survived the disaster.

 * According to a source there was about 285 middle class passengers on the titanic. Almost all of the passengers in second class were tourists. All of the second class passengers had their own library. The men on second class had access to a smoking room that was completely private. Most of the second class rooms had bunk beds but if it was a single roo**** m it would only have one bed. There was no private toilet for every cabin people stayed in but for the girls that did makeup and the men that shaved, there would be mirrors provided by the staff. During the disaster when the ship hit the ice only 119 passengers survived. Luckily all of the children that were on the ship survived but only 14 men made it through. And there was 80 women left. **

Titanic: Upper Class  People were treated differently on the Titanic based on their class. The upper class were living in luxury. They had all of the interesting things to do on the boat. They had gymnasiums,  a squash court, a salt water swimming pool, electric and Turkish baths, a barbershop, kennels for first class dogs, elevators and both open and enclosed promenades. They also had valets, maids, nurses for their children, chauffeurs, and cooks. The upper class consisted of politicians, businessmen, bankers, professional athletes, industrialists and high-ranking military personnel.

 A firs <span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 1.5;">t class ticket ranged from anywhere between 30 pounds and 870 pounds. In todays money, you would probably pay $70,000 for <span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 1.5;">each first class ticket.First Class on the titanic had 39 private suites. They included bedrooms and private bathrooms. They all had five rooms: two bedrooms, two wardrobe rooms, and a bathroom.

<span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 1.5;">First Class passengers, when they were served their meals, they would have 10 different choices of what they would want to eat. They always and a buffet. They would be served a different wine with every course. The meals would be followed with fresh fruit, cheese, coffee, cigars, and port. Also, before they went in the dining room to eat, they would hangout in the receptionist room with a cocktail and talk.

<span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> When the Titanic was sinking, and they had to be saved, the upper class women and children were <span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 1.5;">the first to be saved. Only 120 total upper class passengers died. There were 155 second class, and 537 third class. media type="custom" key="26013968" align="right"<span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 1.5;">So they definitely saved the upper class passengers first.

The benefits and drawbacks of experimentation in our society and our lives because it helps us come up with things that make our lives easier and better. We have vehicles now to make transportation easier and cell phones so it's easier to get a hold of people. Since people are experimenting, we are all getting these new devices that will help us in the long run.
