It is interesting to note that in many other expeditions, a lot of the Europeans attempted to trade/make gifts of gold to the Tahitians, which the Tahitians famously did not give a shit about.

Iron was useful for many things, but gold was just soft and shiny and kind of pretty, but not nearly as soft as the breasts of a Tahitian woman, nor as shiny as the sun on those perfect seas, rendering it relatively worthless in such an earthly paradise.

Why did those Europeans fuck the lesser races anyway? Spanish carry the full blame for "latinos" today...

Have you ever been at sea for several months with a bunch of toothless, stinking English sailors?

And Tahitians are good looking.

You can even watch a movie about it called "The Bounty" starring Mel Gibson as Fletcher Christian, the head mutinist, and his adventures on tanned poon island.

Not to mention all the great books about it, it is a wild story. Fletcher Christian was 1st mate who mutinied against Captain Bligh, and set Captain Bligh and a small group of loyalists adrift in a life raft in the middle of the pacific. Crazy part was that Captain Bligh was such a good sailor they made it back to England. Really wild story, highly recommend reading about it.
