Man a lifeboat
会划船的男人

The lifeboats needed men to do the rowing; if there was not an available member of the crew, a male passenger was required to do their duty. Accusations of cowardice still applied. Major Peuchen, a Canadian passenger who volunteered himself to man a boat because he was an experienced yachtsman, was afterwards maligned. One taunt that circulated about Peuchen was that, "he said he was a yachtsman so he could get off the Titanic, and if there had been a fire, he would have said he was a fireman."
救生船上需要男人来划船，如果没有船员在现场的话，男乘客就可以担起这一重任。当然，这样做也会被人说成是懦夫的行为。一位加拿大的陆军少校Peuchen就自称对划船经验丰富，自告奋勇地要求去划船。之后，他的这一做法也遭到了指责。有一则嘲讽他的说法是，“他想要离开泰坦尼克号所以才说自己会划船。如果现在是着火了，他就会说自己是消防员了。”
