There were two pirates in history. A pirate couple Anne Bonne
and Jack Rackham. Funny story come to think of it. Anne Bonne was
disguised as male, so she could be with Jack. There was another
female pirate disguised, name's Mary Read. Here's the funny bit.
Anne found Mary handsome, thus revealing her own true gender, then
she found out later that Mary was female. 
And in Pirates of the Caribbean, the governer's daughter fell in
love with a blacksmith, who had a destiny of a pirate's son, then a
pirate cap'n.
