I've heard of women who were pirate captains, ex-slaves who were pirate captains, gay pirate captains, and pirate captains of pretty much all races...

...so yeah, pirates, surprisingly open work place.

I think they were also known to attack privateers, who were state authorised pirates run by the monarchies and colonial governments of the world.
