Many of the female passengers refused to leave the Titanic because they either thought it was wrong to leave the men or they were so devoted to their men that they wouldn't not leave them to die when they knew that this was exactly what would happen when they left. Many of the women believed it better to die WITH their men as well, instead of dying alone or leaving the men to die alone.
