The crew today has no gender. Women and children even today refers to normal citizens who are traveling on the ship. Again, any role that a woman can play that a man can do should be honored. Males with children are the exception depending on how many boats are in existence. Women who want to stay behind should not be stopped, but it is encouraged that they go first with children if they are bearing young, have young or plan on bearing young. I understand the situation that just because one can bear children doesnt mean they want or need to so exceptions should be made to women who want to stay behind. As I said, it should be an option for those who volunteer to help.

I'll be honest here, most of the people in the region I live who very regularly have kids would not be the sort of people who are good for the survival of our species, there are a lot of people who use this ability to simply gain more benefits not for the survival of the human race, as has been pointed out here, unless this is the last ship of humans on the planet, the fact that they can reproduce shouldn't really be a deciding factor, I would much prefer to have a doctor or scientist over a person who just has kids for benefits I mean.
I tried to word that as softly as possibly, but I'm not saying that the ability to produce kids is a bad thing obviously, deary me but I'm just saying having a Vagina doesn't make someone a good human being nor a benefit to the race or the surviving group at all.

Survival in itself is not a moral thing. Its just biologically what we strive for to live another day. Its an impertative. Yes, we should save as many members of society who serve a purpose of helping and passing on knowledge in science, medical, arts, leadership etc. The question truthfully is based on a situation where a ship is in trouble and people should go overboard though. Reproduction should be a factor in any means of extreme survival as well as having key memebers of society whom are decision markers.We should strive for a better future, but this should not come at the expense of forgetting how we survived in the past. Humans create artificial roles and both genders can enjoy those, but there are also biological roles and even the denial of this is truly insane. We are not a one sex Asexual society.
