I guess, like much in life, there is no black and white answer, and the truth lies somewhere inbetween. Interesting to note though, when people rediscovered Fletcher Christians paradise many yoears later, they found most of the original mutineers dead - they had fought each other over women and killed most all of the men. Another interesting tidbit in the Cook book was that when they reached one of the south seas islands (can't remember which), thinking they were the first to get there, and had their way with the 'unspoiled' women, many of them got the clap. Turns out the Spanish had been there first, and left a little parting gift.
