There were different criteria among the officers while loading passengers onto boats.

Murdochs policy was 'women and children first'. Lightoller's was 'women and children ONLY' - until only the collapsibles were left and all the women seemed to be gone. Which is why him, Bride, and Gracie were on overturned boat B

The crew of the Titanic allowed first class women and children first, then continued down the the classes.

They say women and children went first and then first class people which was unfair because first class people were the most rich ones, so the poorer people had to wait last or find so other way of getting of the ship.
