Ask Smithsonian.................................................... 

Q: Did any men aboard the Titanic try to disguise themselves as women to get on the lifeboats?
-- Murray Peterzell, Willow Grove, Pennsylvanian

A: Probably not. One survivor said a towel around his neck may have led ship's officers to let him into a lifeboat by mistake, and Fifth Officer Harold Lowe told investigators he'd found a man hiding under a shawl in Lifeboat 14. But neither account is corroborated.
-- Dan Piazza, Curator at the National Postal Museum
