Possible "daddy issues"
Apart from floating mines left over from WWII, giant squid, and large chunks of ice, nothing is more hazardous to shipping than female sailors, especially if, as part of some dumb "diversity drive," they are promoted all the way up to captain.
This age-old truth has been proved once again, following the sinking of the first New Zealand navy ship to go down since WWII.
HMNZS Manawanui, one of only 5 working ships in the New Zealand Navy, was under the command of Commander Yvonne Gray, when she managed to prang it right into a reef off the coast of Samoa. This was despite the fact that it was a newly upgraded hydrographic survey, salvage, and support ship, with complex sensing equipment.
Videos and photos published by local media showed the ship listing heavily while on fire. Later it sank.
The full story of how this vital piece of naval technology was lost has yet to come out, but we can only speculate that it may have been something like the Captain being "on her rag" that week, or getting too involved in a heated discussion over knitting patterns when her fickle female attention should have been on the lurking dangers of the deep.
Other possible causes include disconnecting vital alarm systems because flashing red lights disturbed the "colour scheme" of the command bridge, or "daddy issues."
The need to attract male attention by capsizing in shark infested waters can also not be dismissed as a possible explanation.
