There is so many off things about pirates that we did not really pay attention to in the beginning because we simply see it as fiction and just for entertainment. We don't see the pirates in the Caribbean as criminals even though we see them steal, kill, as well as  harm others. "We never met pirates yet we know exactly what they look like", Cordingly, David. Under the Black Flag. New York: The Random house publishing group, 1996. Yet in every movie, we all dress them the exact same. Another thing is majority of the pirates in movies are all super mean to others or simply cruel.
     Real pirates did not need big "ships" like in the pirates of the Caribbean because the last thing they wanted was to be identified and harder to escape from. Real pirates are elected by their pirates crew which I highly believe that in pirates of the Caribbean, they do not. As stated online on Greek dad, "pirates only fought as hard as they had to", they always tried to avoid fights and just get their prize. If Jack from the Caribbean was actually a captain. his own crew would dump him out because he fought with every chance he could. The whole "arrr" is not what pirates actually would say, just something directors began. Women are too weak to be pirates in a realistic form, it is rare to find a female pirate.
    Men are more risk takers but they know they won't last for long because of what they put themselves into. So considering because honest, why would a female do that? The black flag with the skull and bones were something that real pirates did indeed use. Like in the Caribbean, pirates did not walk the plank. There is not actual evidence if so.
