Question of CHARLINE (10.24.2015): I wonder how female pirates were dressed.
Anne Bonny, female pirate dress codeA: Female pirates usually dressed like men for several reasons:

- Some did not want to reveal their gender before a ship full of men (Anne Bonny and Mary Read, for example)

- Women being hardly accepted on a ship, some came to be respected, and had to imitate men and not to stand out from them to avoid sexist differences.
