Unrealistic. It's silly that a ship has lifeboats that can seat one person. Of course, one wouldn't expect ships with lifeboats for everyone, but they must at least seat like 6-8 people.

Priority would be to assure the children have enough space to save themselves. However, adults obviously need to accompany them, so I believe both men and woman should get in boats equitably.
