Does that have anything to do with the theme of the movie? Any symbolic significance or it's just that Tom Clancy didn't come up for any good idea for a female character?
shareThe Cold War was far too serious to fritter away resources by playing games with the lesser sex on front line battle vessels. There's your symbolic significance.
shareJust announced: The Hunt for Red October starring Meryl Streep and Emma Watson.
Almost everyone in the remake is a female.
And one more thing..
The thing I hate more than anything
on imdb is reading everyone's signature.
There are no women on board Master and Commander either. I am a woman and love both film. The omission of women in these movies does not bother me one bit, as per the time frame of both films women would not have been present.

What you see (and have seen) is what you get -- and have!
Needs more diversity.
shareCrimson Tide says hi
shareYeah. Now I'm wanting to list movies outside Jack Ryan where the main characters and supporting characters are mainly guys and not women.
Die Hard with a Vengeance
King Kong Vs. Godzilla
The first 2 Toy Story movies.
Last Action Hero
Commando
Raw Deal
Red Heat
Funnily enough I can't think of any Superhero movies where there are no female characters.
Yeah, it's totally unrealistic. Back in those days, there were always a couple women smuggled onto the sub in empty torpedo tubes. But I guess the Pentagon told the film directors, that's a state secret, it's treasonous to talk about it. Oh, wait, um... oops?
shareThank heavens! :-) Guys rule!
