Cruise ships have thousands of scantily clad women on board. Many are wearing thongs, and sunning themselves topless. How is it that these cruise ships are not turning into one big rape fest if men supposedly cannot control themselves around women who are not covered in burkas from head to toe?
It's not a cruise ship, it's a research ship. Did you never learn to wear proper clothing when undergoing work with heavy or powered equipment? Quickest way to get hurt is getting your tie or watch caught in machinery. That said, cruise ships have guards, and both kind of ships have men who can't behave themselves.
Cruise ships just cover it up better, a point proven in the article where there were episodes of sexual harassment that meant certain men were not allowed to mix with women. Certainly that isn't the fault of the women, right?
